Roof vents for a Westfalia Joker 1984

Hi Everyone

I hope I'm in the right place to ask about Roof vents - basically I need to replace both - I have seen a Fiamma which seems the right size but have seen a number of comments online suggesting that the original vents are a strange size, mine are 41cm inside surface to inside surface. Anyone replaced there's successfully

If you have a westie Gunzl probably have the answer. You can call them to check which one you need. Good luck.

The Fiamma 40mm size will fit holes from something like 36-44 cm across.
They generally come in two descrete sections; an outer and an inner. They do not 'fix' to the van as such but clamp themselves to the frame by screwing the inner to the outer and they take up any (depth) slack as the screws tighten as the inner slots into the outer if you follow me. Obviously you have to get the appropriate size width wise but I think sizes are pretty standardised.

Hi - Thanks for the replies I'll check out 'Gunzl' But I think as mentioned the Fiamma 41cm should fit.
