roof vent (hail damage)

Picked up the camper today and noticed the roof vent (over the front bed) has hail damage - with huge gaping holes in it. What brand is the vent and is it possible to replace the plastic vent without replacing the entire fixture?

The camper is a 2011 Flagstaff Micro Lite 23LB

Thanks!

Darren

I think a camco replacement fits most.

Add some Max air vents there less likely to break during hail.

Take the vent cover off and go to your local RV dealer to make sure you get the correct size and hinge type. Most RV dealers have vent covers in stock.

Roof Vent...just about 2 hours ago I was on a ladder, cleaning and checking my roof. I bumped the corner of my bathroom vent and a few pieces just flew off, got to looking at the rear corner, and had two little holes. It will be off to Camping World tomorrow for another one or my local RV Dealer. Mine is very brittle....glad I found it before another big rain.
