What is the R-Value of these window covers?

R-value is a building insulation spec based on 6 inches of insulation. Without 6 inches of insulation, an R-value will be inaccurate. The window covers are made with 5 mm automotive-grade PE foam insulation. If you install the covers on all windows and leave them in all day, the inside of the van will be approximately 20 degrees F cooler than the outside temperature (assuming the rest of the van is properly insulated and the cabin is separated from the cockpit).

To install your Front Windshield Cover:

• Place window cover on dash and open completely with the black fabric facing outward.

• Push window cover completely down deep into where the window's glass meets the dash. No need to push hard, just make sure it is seated correctly across the entire length of the window.

Depending on the van, next steps are:

MERCEDES-BENZ: Vans with rear view mirror, lift up the window cover and wrap around the rear view mirror one side at a time with the cut out. Use the magnet to close around it. If you have a technology box or don't have rear view mirror, use the provided hooks that go under the headliner and once hooked on, pull cord locks on either side to pull up close to the glass. If you don't need them, they can be either not used or removed.

• Roll your hand across the top of one side of the cover to the side of the van and pull down sun visor to hold in place. Repeat step on the other side.
• If you have light leakage coming in, push the window cover into these gaps to best seal it up.
• To remove window cover, reverse the process.

FORD TRANSIT / RAM PROMASTER: Use the same steps above. There is not an additional hook/tension system on these covers as it is not needed for these vans.
