Help with escape hatch cover please.
On the beginning of my last trip, somewhere along the way, my escape hatch cover over the bed in the front blew off. The outer dimensions from the roof are about 17" x 24". I haven't seen any brand...

Thanks for the replies.
For now what I've got going on is dealing with getting the lid returned, and I have ordered a whole new escape hatch. I hope the one that is coming is the right size. There doesn't seem to be any standard that I can find for measuring these things. I assumed when I ordered the new one that the dimensions of the hole were the dimensions of the hatch. This could prove wrong because I obviously got the first replacement cover and it was wrong. Though I am thinking that wasn't me because the dimensions of the inner seal on that we're way off. Like 26" x 22". Bad part is that the new escape hatch is from the same company.
Also have some self leveling lap sealant on the way as well as butyl tape, for the installation. Wish me luck, and please throw out any other comments. I won't take offense if I've done something wrong. I'm learning here and I just need to get this fixed before it rains.
