Video Transcript for Hopkins Heavy-Duty Windshield Cover Review
Today we're going to be taking a look at the Hopkins Heavy Duty Arctic Guard Snow and Ice Windshield Cover, part number HM17529. This weather proof windshield cover is going to protect your windshield from snow and ice storms. When that weather comes through we're not going to have to worry about scraping our windshield in the morning. It fits really nice and securely on there. This can even be used in the hot summer months. It's going to keep the interior temperature a little bit cooler in the car and prevent any sun damage that might occur, you know, if you're going to be storing a car outside or something like that. The cover itself is 40 inches tall, it's 73 inches wide, so it's a really big cover.
This is a Suburban that we've got it on and it's got plenty of room. To make the adjustments on our width, right here in the middle, we're going to have three straps. As you can see, you can tighten those down just a little bit and that's going to bring our mirror pockets securely onto our mirrors. This is really going to set this cover apart from a lot of them that you see. They don't have the straps to tighten it up there in the middle and also the pockets, they're not here on the mirror, so you can imagine how much holding force this is going to have. It's really going to help hold this cover in place and also we're not going to be scraping our mirrors in the morning. As you can see, when we're done using it, it's going to fold up, fit right into the mirror pocket there and we're not going to have to worry about storage.
Nice, narrow, tuck it in anywhere, under a seat maybe or wherever you've got a little space. Now that we've gone over our features, let's show you how to get this installed on your vehicle. You're just going to want to pull it out, unfold it here. The three buckles we want to be facing out away from our windshield. We're just going to place that up and over, bringing our mirror pocket around here on this side. It'll really help hold it in place and it's nice to keep your mirrors clean.
Not only is your windshield protected, but mirrors as well. Stretch right on over there, you just want to center it up, right underneath the windshield wiper. That'll help hold down the bottom. Now we've got a strap here, that's going to hold the top down. Just open the door, bring that right in and we'll just close the door right on it.
Do the same thing on the other side. Then we can get in and connect the two hooks together. Just bring them in to the middle here, make the connection and that's going to hold everything in conjunction with the corners being tucked right in there and the weather stripping hold them. We won't have to worry about it going anywhere. Now we can just come out here to the front, put a little tension on our straps. That'll help our mirror pockets hold on really well and just keep it taut on our windshield. That will complete today's look at the Hopkins Heavy Duty Arctic Guard Snow and Ice Windshield Cover, part number HM17529. .

The product is well made and does the job well. For my vehicle it is too large. I have made it work but a little hassle to install. No fault of the product just a very small windshield. Jeep Wrangler. Knowing what I know now , would I buy it again, probably. For the price it is a quality product. 590255

The item was bought for a different vehicle than was listed. My mirrors were too large to fit in the pockets so I tied the corners of the cover to the door handle which worked fine. With the wind and sun that we have I do not think that it will last another 2 years. 437957

Ford Excursion
The service from eTrailer was excellent as always. My opinion of the windshield cover is mixed. I have an Excursion so I searched for the largest cover I could find. This one barely covers the lower and middle of my windshield. The top of the windshield is not covered, this can be a problem when it snows. I had to pull and stretch to get the cover over the mirrors and am afraid that when the temperatures go sub-zero it will not stretch without ripping. This cover is simply not made for bigger trucks like mine. 315818

2006 Ford F-150
The Mirror covers need to be wider with adjustable straps. The one I received is a tad to small/tight. I cover the passenger mirror and scrape the drivers side so I don't have to walk around the p/up. My p/up is a 2005 Ford F150. My brother had the same problem. His p/up is a 2006 Ford F350. 647845

2016 Chevrolet Trax
I would rate this product as fair. I expected my windshield cover to be heavier. I ordered this product because a co-worker had one from a few years ago. However, the one she had was made out of a heavier fabric - a canvas like material. I do like the way the cover goes beyond the windshield wipers. I would have a problem with my wipers freezing due to snow and ice collecting at the base of the wiper. 604362

I've been using this for a month now. Covers the windshield like they said it would and keep the snow and frost off. The product is very thin (garbage bag thickness), so I'm not sure about durability. So far, it has stood up to the elements and serving the purpose. I gave it 3 stars because of the thickness. 588726

Haven't installed it, but ordering through eTrailer is an exceptionally good process. Free shipping and no tax made this a much better value than going through local retail. Shipping was a few days and delivered to my door. Research through local suppliers requires them to order model-specific products and it takes them a few days and at least two trips to their store -- this is a much better process. The instructional videos, reviews, and product details are spot on and more helpful than the manufacturers' site. Plugging in my vehicle loads up recommendations that fit my vehicle -- other retailers make you use filters and I'm less confident the product is specific for my make, model vehicle. 577729

This is a product that will save a great deal of time and effort.... Not to mention cold hands, and other body parts. The actual cover could be better put together, some of the stitching and trim did not hold up. I do make an effort to place this on my windshield at the end of the day, this saves a bunch of time and frustration in the early morning hour as I head out to work..... Just remember to turn off your wipers and turn on the defrost if you have a remote start. 468021

The more I learn about using my cover on my 2007 Chevrolet HHR, the more I love it! I have gone from installation from a couple of minutes down to seconds it feels like! So quick and easy! There is a spot on one of the mirror pockets where the seam seems weak, but I am monitoring it. 467233

It's a little odd to put on, but it has good coverage on my 2007 Honda Element. Covers both rear views, which is important as they are not heated and a pain to remove ice from. Saves me from a lot of scraping windows in the winter. 461559

I purchased this for my husband as a stocking stuffer in December of 2015. He has used it in every snow storm since and really likes how easy it is to deal with at 4:00 am with freezing rain, wind and snow coming from every angle. I think this is a must have for anyone who parks outside during the winter months. He was using a tarp of sorts and that would stick to the windshield every so often...and that was not exactly helpful. Really cool product at a perfect price. Thank you. 325227

He still loves it! And, better yet, it is still working perfectly! Your products are so good. :

Ask the Experts about this Hopkins RV Covers
Do you have a question about this RV Cover?
- Windshield Cover Recommendation for 2017 Jeep Cherokee to Protect from Snow and Ice
- For what you are looking for I'd recommend the Classic Accessories Windshield Cover # CA10003. This is a great cover to protect from winter ice and snow and is easy to install.
Check out the install video I attached for more info as well.
view full answer... - Windshield Cover for a Ford F-350
- The best option to fit the windshield (and side mirrors) on a Ford F-350 is windshield cover # HM17529. It is adjustable but has a max size of 73" Long X 40" tall. The other covers are simply too small for a large truck. The mirrors may be an issue if they are the design that is taller than wide because the covers are designed for mirrors that stick out further than they are tall. I have linked a video review of this cover for you.
view full answer... - Windshield Cover Recommendations for a Truck
- We have a few different windshield covers that all have different sizes. To find the best one for your truck you will need to measure your windshield and then pick the one below that fits yours the best.
The Hopkins Winter Protection - Double-Sided Exterior Windshield Cover # HM17511 is 70" Long X 29" tall. The Hopkins Heavy-Duty ArcticGuard Snow and Ice Windshield Cover # HM17529 is 73" Long X 40" tall, and finally the Classic Accessories Windshield Cover # CA10003 is 67" by 28"
view full answer... - Material and Installation of Hopkins Arctic Guard Windshield Cover
- The Hopkins Windshield Cover part # HM17529 that you referenced is made of a heavy duty nylon material with sewn edges.
It installs by hooking over the rearview mirrors of the vehicle and then adjusted with the straps that run down the middle. If you check out the install video I attached you will see exactly how this is done.
view full answer... - Recommended Windshield Cover For 2018 Ford E-350 Cutaway
- The Hopkins Heavy-Duty ArcticGuard Snow and Ice Windshield Cover # HM17529 is a fit for the 2018 Ford E-Series Cutaway. In the winter, you'll have no more scraping of snow or ice. All you have to do is just remove the cover and you're ready to go. In the summertime, it'll help keep the interior vehicle cool and protect your interior from any UV damage. it is 73" Long X 40" tall.
I have a link of all the Windshield covers that will fit the 2018 Ford E-Series Cutaway.
view full answer... - Preventing Rock Chips and Road Debris Damage when Flat Towing a Vehicle Behind an RV
- Hopkins Heavy-Duty ArcticGuard Snow and Ice Windshield Cover # HM17529 would provide some protection against rocks but it is not meant to be used while the vehicle is moving despite the fact that the RV would be blocking most of the wind. It would ultimately result in damage and/or loss of cover.
I recommend taking a look at our selection of vehicle guards and related parts, see link. Or you might also consider some hitch mounted mud flaps such as # RM-4400-102.
view full answer... - Recommended Sunshield for Vehicles in Hot Sunshine Areas
- The Hopkins Heavy-Duty ArcticGuard Snow and Ice Windshield Cover # HM17529 is a universal fit that is 70 inches wide by 40 inches tall. The black color will attract heat so I recommend instead using a sunshield like the Camco SunShield Reflective Motor Home Window Cover - 62" x 30" # CAM45164. This will give you the best protection from the hot Arizona sun.
view full answer... - Available Windshield Cover to Fit a 2017 Ford E-Series Cutaway
- We do carry a few windshield covers that will fit your RV, but the ADCO cover that you referenced, # 290-2402, will not on the 2017 Ford E-Series Cutaway.
The covers we offer are not custom-fit, but are universal fit in design and are really designed to cover the windshield to protect from the winter elements. A cover like the Hopkins Heavy-Duty ArcticGuard Snow and Ice Windshield Cover, # HM17529, will not only protect during the winter months, but can be used to block out the sunshine...

- For your Demco Excali-Bar II Non-Binding Tow Bar # DM9511009, I recommend the Rock Tamers Heavy-Duty, Adjustable Mud Flap System for 2" Hitches - Matte Black # ERT00108 or the Access Rockstar 3XL Custom Mud Flaps w/Heat Shield for Modified Suspensions - 47" W - Smooth Finish # A10200213 for even more coverage.
Then you can use the Roadmaster Tow Defender Protective Screening # RM-4750 which is compatible with the Demco base plates and tow bar.
For a windshield cover, I recommend...

- Yes, the Hopkins Heavy-Duty ArcticGuard Snow and Ice Windshield Cover part # HM17529 will fit your 2005 Buick LeSabre and will do an excellent job of keeping the snow and ice off of your windshield. As you can see from the sample install video, the process is very simple. Just throw the cover over the windshield and secure it inside the vehicle using the included hooks. You can then tighten the cover with the straps for a better fit. The hardest part will be just throwing the cover over...
