Question:
Can you use the part number HMAV2 half moon vents on the front of a flat nosed enclosed trailer? I realize they are often used on the side but I have a puncture in the front Id like to cover up. Thank you

Hey Brian, thanks for reaching out!
You can absolutely mount the Replacement Exterior Half-Moon Trailer Vent # HMAV2 at the front of a flat nosed enclosed trailer! It won't promote as good of airflow as it would if it were mounted on the side of the trailer, but it won't affect it structurally at all.
If you want the whole vent assembly, then you'll need the Kit # HMAV2-AVT2.
Did something fall on your trailer?
