    It's a shame you couldn't get a replacement lid, I was lucky a few years back getting a lid off eBay and had an easy fix, still you did a great job.

      Thanks Kevin. There were several options on eBay that 'looked right' but I couldn't be 100% sure. At least I know what brand it is, if I lose the cover again (not that I'm planning on doing that, though)!!

    A uv stable sealant is all that is needed to put the new one in. The last thing you want is water ingress and having to do the job twice.

    Thanks for sharing. I have been looking at this same brand but was wondering as it looked like the cover inside did not close up against the top. Perhaps the van is 'thicker " than most. Do you know the van thickness? Cheers

      Hi Max, I can't remember off the top of my head, but it was quite thick....around 30 - 40mm from memory.

    What's the make and model of the driver you're using for screws please? I'm making do with a standard drill but always have trouble stripping heads.

      Hi Steele, I'm using a DeWalt battery powered impact driver. It has 3 settings but I typically use it on #1.

    Are there different size vents? Ive measured ours, 40cm square.

      I'm not sure about that, but when I was looking online for a replacement shower vent with the fan and light, there seemed to only be 1 size. The main roof vents in the kitchen and bedroom section of the van, are bigger, though.
      Are you measuring the overall dimension or the size of the cut out??

      I measured external size, so yes your right. Its the 35x35 size.
      Next question, mine has the fan, where did you order yours from? Thanks

      I bought mine from TRA Australia but you'll also find them on eBay, too. Just make sure you get the one that suits your existing cut out and overall dimensions.
