anyone know where these thingeemujiggies might be available. I'm not holding my breath but one never knows. The make is Ventline(USA) the van is a leasure drive conversion. You might be able to see the first tooth is worn. It wont catch so wont open or close
fingers crossed

Either...
Remake the pressing or part as it looks like one piece of metal
Repair it with a blob of weld and file the weld into a tooth

or.. replace the vent with a fiamma vent.

just my thoughts
