I need a wider selection of vent covers. A refrigerator vent is too large, but I need something like it to cover the hole I'm going to cut in the street side of my Compact to vent the window unit I'm installing in the closet. Does anyone have a source besides VTS and vintage campers.com?

Ack! Thanks, universal...I had searched but kept coming up with vents for the roof, but I see that "louver" was the word I needed! Perfect!

But darn, they don't have one the right size, either. I need like 12"x16".

Thanks. That one would work if I decide not to push the a/c outdoors when I run it. What about the 1 5/8" deep part? The trailer walls aren't that thick!

It's the studs that are 1 1/2", you've still got the thickness of the paneling and the skin to absorb that 1/8", right? Besides, even if it stuck in 1/8", it wouldn't be hard to find that much space when you mount the unit. And you could hinge it if you wanted to make it flip up, but if your unit is actually 12 x 16 the hole won't be big enough for that anyway. You could have a metal shop make anything you wanted...
