Hi everyone,
I'm in the same process of moving from internal insulation to external one, I did read on here that you use silver screen ones.
Are they still in shape after few years?
Where can I buy them?
Any experience with truck style mirrors?
Thank you

I've had one for 10yrs and its still perfect, I also have truck mirrors, mine has a cutout to accommodate the top bracket.
The company is call 'Silver screens' let them you know you need the truck mirror one.

We got a silver screens one about three years ago and it's been great. Very little internal condensation now and it seems to be holding up well to use. As above, they can provide a version to fit syncro / truck mirrors if you tell them at the time of ordering.

Had mine over ten years. it's still like new.
Those of you with the external screens, how well do they stand up with use?

Thank you both,
I found their site I think, they're based in West Yorkshire. I can't find an online shop but I will email them. They looks good, probably not cheap but will see.
I'm looking for something delivered in Verona, IT.
It has been years since I started the suck cups and now we're hanging the panels with magnets but they're not easy to find as they're easy to break or loose.
How is it with the rain? Do they provide a bag for dry storage? I could leave it on the roof but ...
Thank you again.

This is the UK
Dont think you need to ask the rain question.
And yes you get a bag with it.

We bought it and we used it in our southern Italy trip in late March.
I can confirm it perfectly fit the truck style mirrors and it works great!
Almost no condensation and great insulation!
Thank you!
