Sourcing a vent

[SvenglishTommy]

Mabve someone here can help me. I cant seem to find a vent cover that will fit anywhere.

It is to cover an internal hole in the headlining, that is about 15cm in diameter. I dont mind if the vent itself is up to 20cm, as long as it is pretty low profile so it doesn't protrude into the cabin. I cant seem to find anything online that fits the bill.

Any ideas?

Morning Tommy,
Is the Vetus "D'Artagnan" mushroom vent any good?

Well this is for interior use, and is only cosmetic really. That one is pretty expensive, just anything in plastic would do - was at the chandler's again and they have nothing that would fit. I guess I should look oustside of the boaty world.

This is the sortof thing you are after but maybe a bit small. Smart wood surround?

I got some s/s vent covers designed for interior use from a normal hardware store, oblong, about the size of a house brick, probably designed for use in bathrooms to cover ventilation bricks.

A bit big for what you want, but very elegant & long lasting & only a quid or two. I put mine over the vent holes in the washboards.
