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.Works as described and very easy to install. I am going to order three more to replace to ones on our RV before they crack.
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.
Robert - 05/08/2020Ordered this vent cover and a trailer hub.both items were shipped in the same box. The vent cover ended up with a damaged slide because of the weight of the hub. Not a smart idea to ship those in the same box.
Jenny N - 06/20/2022I 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.
Cover fit perfectly and video helped with installation. 2014 6x12 Gator Tail trailer. Delivered very quickly and in time for our trip to Durhamtown GA!!!
I would advise anyone with an old unit to check each vent, as I found 1 had a different hinge. (of course) those I was able to install were great & installed easily considering the age of my trailer!!
Carolyn - 04/15/2022I sent an email inquiring about the proper size I needed. I was pleased at the quick response and how fast I received the item! I haven't attached it yet but set it on top of the vent opening and it looks perfect! I'll definitely be reaching out to Etrailer for any other items I may need. :-)
Evidently these are suspectible to degrgation by UV light as I replaced one about 3 years ago because when I was shoveling the roof of my trailer off I hit the skylight with a shovel and broke the lens. I replaced it with a new one at that time. A couple of weeks ago we had a bad windstorm and found the remains of both skylight lens in small pieces around the trailer. When I picked up one of the larger pieces in simply crumbled in my hand. So this time I bough 4 new lenses and will keep two in stock out of the sunlight for future replacement. They should last more than 3 years I would think!!! Great service by etrailer with pretty fast shipping and good packaging.
Got some help from Shianne to confirm this was the replacement I needed for my trailer, she was great and gave piece of mind that I ordered the right part first time. Ordered on Thursday, received a-ok following Wednesday. Replaced failed dome easy-peesy and am now rainproof once again. Very satisfied with etrailer!
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!
The item I received was exactly as described, and was the perfect replacement that I needed. It was delivered ahead of when I expected it--very fast.
The part was a perfect fit,
My RV is a 2003 model. I was really skeptical as to whether this dome would fit like the OEM model. It really did. Installation took less than 15 minutes. I'm really happy!
Vernon - 05/21/2022Perfect fit for my 2006 Atlas utility trailer. Easy installation, and virtually identical to the original vent. I had originally ordered part # BBC0530-01. etrailer notified me that the part was back-ordered from the factory, and suggested this unit instead. Worked like a charm and saved me $35! Thanks!
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.
The replacement vent cover was easy to install and the instructions were simple to follow. I did have to cut my screen because it was sealed into the vent frame and there was no way it was coming out. The screen repair isn't a big deal. The vent operates as it should now and will definitely keep out the water. Satisfied with the product and the company. Thank you!
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 T - 02/16/2018Easy replacement - came with domes dented due to items packed with them to get free shipping.
Brooke M - 08/16/2022Great replacement part. I removed the inner crank handle, the screen, the crank mechanism, bent the retainer to slide the vent cover off, reversed the proceedure and my new cap fits like a glove.
Michael - 10/20/2021Excellent customer service, I ordered the wrong lid at first ...(my fault) make sure to ask questions in order to get the correct cover the first time! Rose was my customer service rep and was great making sure I had all I needed for the return of the wrong one and ordering the correct lid.
Got it in a few days and took me 5 minutes to install. Thanks etrailer!
This was so easy to install from the instructions provided I didn't even need to use my degree in Engineering. Now I need to recoat the roof
These were the perfect replacement vent covers (2) for my camper. Very easy to install. I would use them again. One of my crank mechanisms is missing a metal spring clip so it doesn't work as smoothly, but I highly recommend these covers.
Robert E - 09/08/2021Easy install, this is my third one on two different trailers.
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.
I think the product will be ok, havent installed them yet but 2 of the 4 i ordered may give me problem due to packing. They seem warped and both are flat on top where they should be domed.
