VanEssential Rear Door Half Bug Screen with Privacy Panel Designed for Mercedes-Benz Sprinter Van High Roof Van Years 2007- Current (Models:VS30 & NCV3)

I love this. Back when I started vanlife none of these specialized products existed and I had to design and make my own. While the one I made gapped a bit (held on just by magnets sown in), I made it so that it was only screen on the top and solid fabric on the bottom for garage privacy. I was thrilled to find a product that also allowed for garage privacy.I installed this backwards so that I can roll the black-out fabric up or down from inside and it is perfect! It was a little tricky to install and required a friend, a ladder, and a hammer, but we got the job done. Whenever I open my back doors, I still exclaim, "I love my screen!" - it's been months!The quality is exceptional and the price is a good value.

Have a 2022 Sprinter covering could be a tad bit larger, left openings on part of the window due to skimping of size and one window covering was a bit smaller than the other one Could have had more magnets and we got a bit of a breeze during the night and one of the covers almost was completely unattached as magnets did not reach complete window. Would have been great if they just made them a little bit larger with more powerful or more magnets.

Short version: I love it (I should specify that I bought the rear door screen as it seems Amazon combines reviews for the rear and side/sliding door screens). It's high quality (be leery of the "magnetic" screens - the ones I've seen had poor quality screen and have weak magnets that don't stay in place).Besides quality material, it's great that you have multiple options: (1) open it entirely, or (2) open just the bottom half to remove gear, or (3) just expose the screen at the top for ventilation within the van - and for ventilation over the bed at night.Install tips: there are no in box instructions - the manufacturer provides a card with a QR Code for digital instructions. That's fine, but I'd like to add a few tips.(1) It is suggested this is a 2-person install - I agree! Working solo, I 'installed' it twice but I wasn't happy with the alignment - it took me over one hour (~ 1:20). Once I got a helper to hold it, we finished the 3rd and final install in about 25-minutes.(2) The instructions state to start at the top. I partially disagree. Yes - start by clamping it at the top, but we found that permanently 'fastening' it from the bottom-up gave a much better result (in the first attempt).(3) Put the helper on a step stool and have them hold the sides - and stretch [or rather pull] the sides straight. Yes, when permanently fastening you want & need some slack, but if the helper holds the sides straight with a bit of pressure it will eliminate wrinkles.(4) Once you get back to the top - to permanently fasten it - you can (re)adjust it to mitigate any slack & to make it 100% square.Again, I found it critical to permanently fasten the screen from the bottom and work up so the bottom isn't too long - if the bottom is too long, you'll have trouble latching and/or closing the rear doors.This is top quality - at a top price. You get what you pay for. If you have a camper van that you've invested tens of thousands of dollars, why would you buy & install a 'junky' $100 model. In my opinion, this screen is worth the price.

Does not fit as described, but we make it work because the price was right.

The product itself seems durable and great material. However, it does not fit the intended Mercedes Sprinter van. Too short by a couple inches on the one corner.

I bought the expensive namebrand screen door because I wanted something that was really solid and worked well once it was installed. The installation is definitely tedious. If you don’t have strong hands and a pretty decent sense of mechanical ability you’re gonna have a bad time. My biggest complaint is the way that it installs it increases the thickness of The already tight door seal. This makes the sliding door even harder to close. I have to slam the door so hard I’m afraid I’m gonna break a window at this point. Make sure not to install any of the clips near the locking pins at the rear of the door or it’s even worse. Just the added thickness of the clips make the door just about impossible to get to close all the way. As I said, I’m not sure that there’s a better solution, the pure magnetic screen doors that need to be installed every time you want to use them are you a real pain and this style is really the only other option. It’s difficult to recommend at this price. I expected a much more refined installation at this price, not what amounts to a universally sized door with unfinished edges that you have to trim after installation.

Its not that hard to install. I did it by myself. Only recommend cutting extra material on the sides once you know that magnets are closing properly, not to tight, not to loose. Watch a YouTube if your struggling, or the instruction videos. I have the bad and side sliding door for 22 Sprinter full time living and they are both great

It is a time consuming install, and is very hard to roll up to stow it in the open position, but it is nice that it doesn't affect the function of the Sprinter side sliding door when up or down. The magnetic closure side works really well for quick ingress/egress. It does close the sides of the opening size up by 3-4 inches per side. Nice mesh size, good quality zipper and velcro stow straps. It seems to be quite durable so far.
