Replace the vent cover on your Elixir trailer roof vent (made after 1995) or your Ventline trailer roof vent (V2094 - made before 2008) with this equivalent part. Fits 14-1/4" x 14-1/4" openings.

Today in this old enclosed trailer we're going to repair the roof vent. What we're going to do is put a new cover on the top of the vent and on the inside we're going to install a new screen. A new screen for the inside is part number BVC0573-31 and our roof vent cover is going to be part number BV0554-01. First, we'll go ahead and take the trim ring off the interior here. Now there's a screw here and here we have to remove. We also have to remove the handle too.
Now this is the condition of the roof vent right now. The dome is completely gone and all that's left is a hinge and the brace in the middle. What we'll do is crank the brace up a little bit to make it easier to remove and we'll remove what's left of the hinge. On the bottom of the hinge is some tin that we just peel off out of the way and you should be able slide off to the other side. We'll also remove the trim ring and the screen.
We'll need that out of the way to work with it. Let's go ahead and bring this up. We'll go ahead and put our new vent dome in place. We just slide it on. Now we'll take our tab and just bend it down so it cant slide out.
We'll do that in both sides. Now, to put our crank mechanism back into track, we'll just go ahead and loosen it up, put the roller back in here and then bolt it back in place. Now, we can go ahead and put our screen in place. Now this is our old vent and this is the new vent we're going to replace it with. Dimension wise, its an identical fit.
However, the only difference is the hole for the crank is located in a different stop. The older screens or older vents are getting harder and harder to find. By using this new vent, we'll only need to do one modification. We'll place one over the top of each other, square it up and we'll use a 1/2-inch drill bit to mark our hole. We're going to give you a measurement from this mark to the edge right here. Now that looks like 3-3/4 inches. We'll put a block under it then we'll drill out a hole. We'll start smaller and work our way up so that way we have a nice even finish when we're done. Now, for our original hole here when we have everything installed, we'll just use some silicon sealant to fill up the hole. We're going to reinstall the trim. We'll go ahead and put our handle back into place then we'll take a few seconds to seal up that hole. Also, if you can get a hold of a plastic plug, you'd use that as well on here too. We'll go ahead and operate it. With that, that'll finish it for our roof vent repair on this old trailer.

Replace the vent cover on your Elixir trailer roof vent (made after 1995) or your Ventline trailer roof vent (V2094 - made before 2008) with this equivalent part. Fits 14-1/4" x 14-1/4" openings.Several of the vent covers were crushed in shipping from being stacked in the boxes (metal arm from one on top pushed in to one under it). Trailer promptly replaced them after sending pictures. A testament to their customer service and satisfaction. I would definitely order from them again. The covers themselves fit perfectly on our 2017 Montana 5th wheel
Perfect replacement for our 1999 Jayco Kiwi bathroom vent cover. Easy swap out. We are ready for another year of outdoor enjoyment thanks to etrailer's excellent customer service.
I called etrailer to see if they could help me with a replacement dome cover and I spoke with WILL and he got me exactly what I was looking for. I watched the video on how to replace the dome cover and the old cover came off and the new cover went on exactly like the video showed.
These pictures are of the replacement of my vent covers on a 1975 Star Craft
Camper. The ones I ordered from you were slightly bigger, 14.5 inches, than
the standard 14 in replacements and were a perfect fit. They installed
easily once I removed years of caulking and sealant from the hinged slide
rail. It has been a year since I replaced the covers and they are holding
up just fine. Recommend any do it your selfers carefully measure the
existing covers to make sure they will fit properly.

The vent covers are still working great. If you need a plastic replacement vent fan blade for a very old fan motor with a 14 inch D shaped shaft, most modern replacements fit a smaller shaft. I used Grainger and found exactly what I needed for a few bucks without having to replace the entire motor and switch assembly.
Great replacement of original roof vent. Easy install, too.
Wicked winds shredded the dome top on my 1995 Carson trailer. This was an *exact* replacement. So glad they stuck with this great design over the years. etrailer installation video was very helpful. Shipping was fast and so was the installation. Got it done just before a rain storm! Thanks, trailer, for making my life a little easier.
I found the part number needed after reading a thread on a repair page. I ordered the vent cover and it was processed and shipped very quickly, with a link emailed to me to track the order. Very fast service and I would definitely recommend the etrailer team for all you issues. Thanks for everything!!
Perfect replacement for 20 year old covers! They fit great, are easy to install (you'll need to work from inside and on top the camper), seem to be sturdy yet forgiving enough to take an errant tree branch or light hail, and let a lot of light inside. The domes are slightly higher profile than the OEM, but it provides a quieter angle for raindrops (and "glancing blows" angle for small hail - which cracked the old ones). I doubt I'll need to, but I would buy them again - especially from etrailer.com.

A year later these replacement covers are working perfectly.
Great value and fast service. I placed an order of 2 fenders and a roof vent on Tuesday, and it was on my door step in Wisconsin by Friday. Definitely will shop here again for future projects...
Trailer roof vent fit perfectly and was easy to install. It also arrived a day early!
I got my item in the mail less than a week
after I ordered. I have a 2004 Pace cargo
trailer. The original dome fell to pieces from age and sun exposure. I found etrailer and found the dome item BV0554-01. Installed it in about 15 minutes. Looks and works great.

Dome works great. Very happy with the product and with etrailer.
always a pleasure to do business with E trailer.
Prompt shipping and transit time. Box with the 2 vent covers arrived in excellent condition.
Easy and fast to install.
5 screws per vent and a total of 15 minutes to install 2 vent covers.
Great instructions, and video tutorials available too.
Two thumbs up!
Happy ..

Vent covers still look new, interior of trailer is still dry, vents were an excellent purchase.
The order was processed quickly and I was kept informed on the status with e-mails. Vent cover installation and fit up was easy. The mate up of the existing open/close mechanism was a little "fussy". But a re-review of the included instructions confirmed the correct orientation. After I applied a small amount of grease to the friction retaining clip and slide, it was working as good as new.
I was impressed with the speed at which I received my order. I was equally impressed with the ease of installation.
Fantastic!
This was a great purchase! Arrived on time, early in the AM, so I had plenty of time to install it. Easy to install, looks great! Thanks e trailer.
Emailer is the first and only place I go to for any parts or equipment I need for my trailering needs. Great customer service, fast shipping. I've been using them for many years now. Highly recommended.

A year later and the vent is holding up great. I live in a coastal area with salt water on both sides of our community. Vent still looks great and opens and closes like new.
Pleasantly pleased with this vent cover. Its fit over the roof opening of our 20 year old hay trailer was a bit tight so the plastic dome wouldn't descend flush to the trailer roof. It seemed the closing edge opposite the hinge was bowed inward a little. (Might have been compressed during shipping, but the outside of the box was not damaged). Anyway, I was able to gently bend it outward without damage using a channel lock on the supporting galvanized brace which runs from the hinge to the opposite side.
The excellent instructional video attached to the dome part on etrailer's digital shopping catalogue was very helpful. I changed the screen too. I was able to find an older style screen on the Walmart website which did not require me to drill a new hole for the crank handle as demonstrated in the instructional video on the etrailer.com site. At half the price as etrailer's screen and double the shipping cost from Walmart, cost for replacing my vent dome was a horse apiece.
Thanks etrailer. I'm very happy.
This shank works perfectly with my 2019 Chevy Tahoe with tow package and 2017 Forest River 2360 Trailer with a Pro Series weight distribution hitch. On the bottom adjustment holes it lines up at the same height as the trailer ball when level. A very heavy duty shank.
Got it installed today. It took me a while but I’m sure more experienced people would knock it out in next time’s
I hate to leave a bad review due to the seller but my product arrived damaged due the seller stuffing them into a box thats to small.

That looks awful, I am so sorry it arrived this way! I will have our customer service team reach out to you.
It fit. I climbed up top with a hand drill, a bit, 3 solid general purpose screws and installed it in about 3 minutes. I already had the trailer out on a road trip in a rainstorm and it functioned like a charm. My gear was safe and dry. It's the 3rd vent cover I have had to put on this trailer over 10 years and this was the cheapest and easiest way yet.
Arrived as scheduled and as advertised.

Great!
I have an enclosed trailer that had a deteriorated roof vent. I wasn't sure which vent would fit my trailer because two different ones were available. I checked out several websites and etrailer.com had the best detailed information, pictures and how to DIY videos. This made it very easy for me to order the correct vent and install it with ease. It was also very competitively priced. I selected the cheapest shipping and was amazed that it only took a few days. Whenever I need anything for my trailers, I will go to trailer.com first!

A year later and a few miles later still functioning as expected. Makes me feel as though it may last another 20 or so years like the original. Thanks etrailer !!
