Question:
Im needing a vent cover for my sundowner horse trailer. It is an older model. It is not exactly square. It measures about 12.5inch x13. Could thus be right. I know normally they are square 14x14. The hinge is an odd one that Ive not been able to find. If you could suggest a lid for me or should I replace whole vent with universal. And 2nd question if I change everything will I have to cut hole bigger? I have not taken it apart yet to see whole size.

Thanks for the photos, Charlotte!
The replacement lid you're looking for is the Camco Replacement Lid for Jensen RV Roof Vent w/ Pin-Style Hinge # CAM40147. This is designed for standard 14" x 14" vent covers which you actually have. The 14" measurement is taken from the opening up above which is why your measurements are slightly different.
If you wanted to upgrade to a newer vent that is completely possible and you won't have to modify the hole in your roof. For a standard replacement I recommend the Ventline Ventadome # V2092SP-25, but if you wanted an upgraded version I recommend the MaxxAir Mini # MA00-03700 instead. The Ventadome is basically the same as what you have now while the Mini comes with a cover so you can keep it opened up while you're driving or even while it's raining. Be sure to also pick up the Roof Vent Installation Kit # 344270KITW to properly install your new vent!
Attached are some videos for you to check out and get a good idea of how these operate.
