Help a newbie out

[IrishDan]

Hey all. Loven the community here. I recently bought a Fiat Ducato Rotec 6berth. When I bought it the previous owner had a broken roof vent cover which is letting water in instead of replacing it he covered the vent from the outside on the roof with a square piece of Perspex and silicone which is still letting water in.

I am online trying to find the correct replacement and all I’m finding are 14inch universal covers. The inside of my roof vent is about 14 inches but on the outside the other vents measure 18 inches. I am not sure how to find the correct replacment can anyone help ?

Many thanks

Have you got a pic by any chance

I think they're usually metric, 14" - 18" sounds like it's probably a 400x400mm
Lots of different makes available

I just figured out the outside dome on the mpk roof light is in fact 18inch but the cutout inside is 14inch I believe my bad guys.

yeah so the inside cutout is 400mm but if you went up on the roof and measured the plastic dome it would be 470mm I do believe ?

Welcome to the forum Dan.

MPK roof lights are available, do a Google search for MPK roof lights and use the image option to see if what you have left of your roof light matches any of the images.

It's the cutout that's important and that'll be 400x400mm

It will most certainly be a 400x400 vent . Mpk are crap so do yourself a favour and don't fit another one . I'd recommend a fiamma or a mini heki . The fiamma will be the cheaper option but a little dearer than the mpk . But worth spending a bit more if you plan to keep the van.

hope you get it sorted

If it’s a 400x400 mm hole then a Maxxfan would fit a be a great upgrade over a standard vent.

We bought a Maxxfan as a replacement and it’s excellent not cheap but come summer worth every penny.
