Bug screens keep breaking
Has anyone found a bug screen for the 2 round hole heater exhaust vent that would be a permanent installation? I have tried 2 of those bug screens that are held on with a spring and they last about a year then fall off while driving.

I haven't done this yet but I also haven't lost a screen yet....I plan on getting some stainless steel wire and twisting it tight. It will be heat resistant and shouldn't corrode.

I use bare copper wire (and works great. Easy to get at any hardware store, but I had some scrap in my garage.
Use aluminum screening and stainless wire to hold it on.
