The roof vent over the kitchen of our swift challanger has broken off .Its the part that pushes up and for the winter we have had to strap it down. My question is do we have to replace all the vent or can we replace just the broken section?

we have never  had to repair a thing before .

you need to replace all of it.most are 400x400 see.and you need sealer too.

You can get the roof light domes here http://www.leisurefayre.co.uk/original_site/html_pages/cavester03.htm

Or get a nice new Fammia here Click_here .

Imo you'd be better off with a nice new roof vent as the price between the replacement dome and a new one isn't much .

good pictures wizard.

That was the first job i ever did on my swift.

Very easy to do,0nly 4 screws

The downside is the caravan shops know where to hit you hard,am sure I was about £40 for replacement.

Good Luck

Ive got a 400 x 400mm mpk one on ebay at the moment with a start price of £25 its one i took off a new van to fit an omnivent.

Its the same as the one in michaels pic above.

Its open to offers over £25 + delivery, as theres 4 people watching it at the moment.

Send me an email if you want it, if your close enough i'll even fit it for you

thankyou all so much

.You has made the job seem a lot easier than we first thought it was going to be and we will now have a go and fix it ourselves

Hi all sorry it took so long to get back on here .

Its been a long winter.

We managed to get the roof vent repaired thanks to the replys on here it was a lot more simple to do than we thought.

thanks again
