I have some broken triangular cabin air vents on my 1991 rv4....any sources known to replace? Anyone have any?

Thanks

Lack of response could be because know one knows what part you are talking about.
There are a lot of different vents that have been used on RV-4's over the years. Since you call it a triangular vent, I assume it is some type of NACA vent, but that still doesn't narrow it down very much.
If you could post a picture it would probably help.....

Well you can't post a picture directly, but you can post a link to a picture that is hosted somewhere else on the net. It could even be something you find on google.

Btw I don't know what you mean either

but will be happy to help with a bit more info. Most 4s use an NACA scoop which you can get from Vans.

Does it look like one of these?

Used to be available from Van's - search the options catalogue, or maybe Spruce catalogue?
