Roof Vent Replacement
I'm looking for any insights on replacing the roof vents on a 2007 Outback. The ones on there now are (probably) the originals and the covers are cracking. Given the age of the TT, I'm thinking that replacing them (3 total, 2 plain and 1 w/fan) is probably the way to go, even though it's more expensive than just replacing the covers.
The vents appear to be attached with mental straps that are hammered to the inside framing. There seems to be a rubber/vinyl membrane that is between the vent flanges and the framing. Can't tell with there are any external screws on the roof, since the flanges are all covered with caulking. It looks like the first step will be to remove all the caulking and then take off the vent. Hopefully, the new vents will have installation instructions.
Anything in particular that I should look out for?
