I assume you are asking about the overhead door? We have not but wish we had.

One of the few quirks I have about homes in The Villages are those homes which have the decorative inserts in their garage door windows and leave them the original white plastic rather than paint them to match the door resulting in them standing out like cheap jewelry on an elegant lady.

Buy the black magnetic rectangles from EBay.... they stick on the outside of the door! Looks great and you can leave your interior garage light on without anyone noticing...saves on windex

had the Plexiglass windows installed years ago. They do a great job of letting light into the garage. They clean easily and today look as good as they did 14 years ago.

In very many products the material is not paint-able.....no stick....peels....cheap jewelry gone from bad to worse.
