Hi,
I am trying to find a replacement skylight for our old Elddis Wisp 25th anniversary 6 berth.

Measurement 300 x 350mm

Cant find the right size online and really don't want to fit a used one.

Any polite suggestions welcome.

Have a search on The Caravan Shop website it's in Glasgow, I got mine from there at the best price anywhere, although not the same size as yours

Are you measuring the size of the actual hole in the roof as it could be 320x360

Is it the fairly standard MPK skylight? You can remove hatch by unscrewing the 4 small screws in sprung arms then take to caravan shop to match up. As pointed out, sizing up by measuring can be confusing.

Thank you,

Maybe I will remove it and check the measurement but I am pretty sure its 300x350, if I do it most likely will come out in kit form.

For me to make a trip to the local caravan shop would mean a 12hr trip by sea as I am in Shetland where hurricane Gertrude made her presence felt !!
Caravan damaged it is old so not the end of the world however both my classic cars have also been damaged and that's just not funny.

I had to replace my skylight after it blew off in a storm a few years ago.
As I have an older van (1969), on removing the old one, I discovered my skylight was not a standard size.
I bought a new one, as close in size as I could to the old one, but I did have to make the hole larger in order to accommodate the new skylight, which was easy enough to do with a small saw, some new batons and mastic sealer.
