Lance roof hatch parts

RV DR GEORGE in Sacramento is another good source for used parts.

Is this perhaps a Heki Midi hatch? If so, Dometic can source the parts, you need to call them directly with PN in hand, they need to order them from Europe, you will pay a huge price and be charged again for shipping, and the whole process will only take 10 weeks. Customer "service".

However I may have one from the one I took off my Bigfoot, if you are interested.

I am interested. My son lives in Napa. I'll PM you for further info...

Cool!

I'm not having issues with the window coverings. My issue is with the over-the-bed roof hatch. One side slides a room darkening shade, the other a screen that lets in light and fresh air. The string that guides the shade and screen came off their tabs and when I removed the assembly, I discovered plastic tabs that hold the string in place to have busted off.
Now I just need to find a source to buy the part I mentioned in my OP. I can only find the part in Europe or Australia. No where in the USA.

In our Lance -- For the hatch, I build a Plexiglas interior cover with a round rod quick release. For the shades, which we disliked, we just pulled them all out and installed new round rods, and Genie made heavy dark curtains, with Velcro seals - works fine and she slides each one off once in a while and washes it ...

I’m not familiar with your particular application, but our Fantastic Fan vent doesn’t have a shade, just a screen. For room darkening, Arctic Fox supplied a square faux leather cover that attaches with snaps at each corner. To help seal out the light better I added velcro between the snaps and foil insulation to keep the heat/cold out. Not as handy as a sliding blind, but it blocks out the light (better?) and is easy to remove when you want to use the vent. Best of all there are no moving parts and would be simple and retalitively cheap to replace.

Time for me to find another mini blind that would do the same thing and fit the opening. Maybe a velcro solution to hold in a screen or an insulated panel depending on need.
