External recessed Vent for 1985 Autohomes

Post by Bigcarp »

Hi everyone,

On the side of my autohomes kamper (1985) there are 2 white plastic grille type vents (fairly standard stuff), top for the fridge (surface mounted) and bottom one (Recessed) I think just as a breather vent but both about the same size???

Anyway, Im looking to replace the bottom recessed grille as its cracked, does anyone know if these are standard camping/motorhome grilles or would I need to get a second hand one from a T25?? Checked a camping parts site (caravanparts.co.uk)and they sell MPK white recessed grilles with winter covers...Would these be the same?

Just be nice if someone else had already covered this to save me buying something that may not be the right thing.

Thanks, as always

Right then; it's 'good news, bad news' time. The good news is that I've just replaced both of mine. To be honest I think they're both surface rather than recessed. The bad news is I binned them last week BUT I don't think said bin has been emptied yet. I'm not at the work place tomorrow as I'm going to Cromer but I could make a desperate phone call to try and retieve them. Here's a picture of the lower one which I think is identical to the upper one.

You can get the recessed type from http://www.Rainbowconversions.co.uk. Also available is the snap on cover. I have one (the vent) available if wanted by anyone, a year old....free!
