LOL, I'm in the same position.
The only thing I've found is
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SEITZ-DOMETIC ... X-oK2FFkog
But at 450 squid, way out of my price range

I measured the size as:
73cm (min) to 82cm (max) wide
50 cm (min) to 60 cm (max) long.

yer I know 450 ouch not even mr ebay is that good

jacksons is doing 750 x500 ones for special offer of 299 ?? and been told to get non forced vented for camper and motorhomes
vented for caravans etc

got a week off over chrimbo so will keep you posted

Can I ask what you mean by "non force vented" - do you mean one with an electric fan? If so, why?

Just curious.

[madmatt1969]

no vented meens when the rooflight Is shut theres no air flow into the van though it
forced or just vented meens when driving air flows thou the roof light to the van even when closed

that's how ive read it and on other websites say non vented for motor homes campers etc
I think vented creates wind noise etc

[Beaker]

Thanks for that. Makes sense to me.

Maybe so you can close the door easier also, so it forces air out in a caravan ?

[madmatt1969]

yer that's a good point ... its just where every I look they say vented if for caravan non vented motorhome/camper

I think its about wind noise too as air wissling in at 70mph may not be too good
