Question:
Id like to install a roof vent in my Wells Cargo trailer. It has the typical metal roof braces with very thin plywood that is placed between the braces and the actual inside part of the roof. Can I just cut the appropriate size hole and mount the roof vent, or will I need to add framing for extra support ?

Expert Reply:
You would not need to brace the roof of your Wells Cargo trailer to install the part # V2110SP-24. You would just need to cut the appropriate sized hole (14-1/4 by 14-1/4 inch) and then it would be read to install.
For an install kit that comes with sealant and install hardware you would want the part # 344270KITW.
