Roof Vent Installation

I am slowly making our little Featherlite 6X10 that we haul our motorcycle around with a bit more livable and have recently decided that a roof vent would be my next little project. I am looking for some installation assistance that will have it fitting and looking nice between the 24" metal braces that support the roof.
Also if you have any recommendations on a particular brand with a fan it would be welcome.

Thanks!

...as far as I am concerned, there is only one fan vent to get...the Fantastic Fan Vent with the best vendor here http://www.rvvent.com/index2.htm ...frame the opening 14.25"x14.25" with at least 1.5" wide stock for the best results.....

hunts4beer,

I put my 14" x 14" roof vent in the v-nose section of the roof of my Featherlite, used standard butyl tape for the waterproof gasket and riveted it down with short, fat aluminum rivets. Plastic trim ring on the inside.


Is your Featherlite a model 1610?

AH Butyl tape. The sticky stuff with a hundred uses.
