So I noticed that many of you really like the Maxxair vent covers. What are the advantages to this mod? Is it just for air movement?

Thanks,

Rick

You said "aftermarket" and MOST of the great suggestions above were standard on my trailer but my best aftermarket mod was the duel battery hook up and the necessary tools to monitor them.


I'm getting a dual battery (12V batteries) hook up on our new TT & just wondering what type of "necessary tools" do you have to monitor your dual battery hook up?

Weber Q grill with collapsible cart of course. But the best accessory we got was the Black and Decker drill set combo that has all the tools in it, as we are always looking to do something in the camper while at the campground.

Mobil1... piece of cake!!
Worst part is clearing the mfg silicone to get to the screws to take off the existing vent cover. Once that cap is off - slip this over the vent tube - put in three screws - slab around some silicone... DONE!!!

Took me all of 1o minutes to do both tank vents on my TT.
Funny but I get a kick out of watching them switch directions in the breeze where we're parked... LOL!!!

Hope this helps!!

Although I could not live without an electric tongue jack, the other I will never live without is my PressurePro tire monitoring system. Gives me a peace of mind when towing.
