Find an old refrigerator and cut the magnets out of the door seals. Use standard fiberglass window screen and set the screen in place and cut and apply the magnet strips over the screen. Carefully pull all the slack out of the screen while keeping the magnets straight. Trim all but about an inch of the screen. Use a small bristle brush to apply contact cement to the top face of the magnet only. Fold the screen over the magnet and remove it. Allow the glue to dry and them apply a second coat of cement. Fold the screen back over the magnets and keep pressing it down. You may have to add a little more cement to the top of the magnets to secure them after the screen is stuck to the magnets.
Looks ok and keeps mosquitoes out.

Don't try to drive with them on though.

The seat covers are not Akole's. They came on the vehicle. I'll make covers of better fabric soon. I'm an upholsterer with an industrial machine and I'm looking to make covers. I can make exact reproductions or any quality slips.
