Rear window screen
I just reattached the rear window screen on my 2005 Lexus LS 430. I used a size .95 weed trimmer line. It was very simple. Raise the frame and leave it up. You might have to help it because it will come up at an angle. Fish the screen out and extended it fully. Lay something on it so that it wouldn't retract. Take the top bar off by removing a screw on each end. You will need a short cross point screw driver. Insert a little of the trimmer line into the slot at the end of the screen. Insert the screen into the grove in the top bar that you removed. (I worked from left to right) Slowly push the trimmer line through. This will secure the screen to the top bracket. When you see the line coming out the other side stop and trim off about 3/4" of line on each end of the line. Push the corners of the screen into the grove and make sure that they slid into the anchors attached to the top bar. (Use a flash light and you will be able to see how they need to attach. Reattach the top bar with a screw on each side.
Good luck. It took me about 45 minutes.

4. Insert sun screen into slot of the black bar.
5. Insert weed whacker lie into sun screen while its in the slot in the black bar.
6. Leave about 1/2 inch on each end of the sun screen.
7. Re-install black bar into the actuators.
8. Time to stunt on b**ches
