  1. I came upon this comment on the product EQUINOX No-See-Um Netting at Amazon site. I think this is what you are looking for. (I have not figured out how she did by "Fold the piece in half, sew the two sides together," My question is: which two sides? ) This is great. Forget those expensive skeeter screens that attach magnetically ... By Patricia E on August 20, 2014 Size: One SizeColor: One Color Verified Purchase OK campers, listen up. This is great. Forget those expensive skeeter screens that attach magnetically to your car, or draping the netting over the door and then slamming it shut to keep it in place, only to have it fall to the ground every time you open the door. I camp in my Honda Fit, so I made "pillow cases" out of this netting. Fold the piece in half, sew the two sides together, open the car door, slip the netting case over and you're good to go. (Note: one package needed per car window. There will be extra bulk but that's ok - minimizes tension on the stitching.) I can sleep with the windows open 3 - 4 inches for ventilation and when nature calls in the middle of the night, I get out and back in without the hassle of rearranging the netting. Maybe someone already makes something like this and I'm not as clever as I think I am but I love the concept and this netting is perfect for the job. Having all 4 windows covered also adds a nice "darkening" effect so I have a little privacy for clothes changes. Good stuff!
  2. I am annoyed by those lights being turned on by door opening. Mine is a 2016 TC XL. I tried the approach of pushing forward turning signal switch (actually it is On/Off high beam). It worked,but only for that instance. I had to repeat it each time I opened the door. Well, it is better than nothing! I do have a question on removing the cargo lamp. Can I just remove the LED without touching anything else? (I don't understand why doing those extra steps, e.g. removing the connector or "spliced in a toggle switch", etc). Thx. PS. My cargo lamp would go off about 12~16 sec. after shutting the door. Regardless, I just don't like it being turn on.
