 Looks just like the cover I have on my new service entrance at home.  The cover from Cutler Hammer is on back order.

Thanks John! That helps!

In the meantime, I came up with a "coverup" for the ride home!

Did the same thing last year, you are supposed to turn the screws after putting on the vent Ouch. Bought the part from Direct-RV. Got it in a few days.

I put a small 2” piece of HVAC aluminum foil duct tape on the top and bottom of each vent panels as a backup. It's peels off if you need to access the back of the refrigerator and leaves no sticky residue like normal duct tape because it uses acrylic adhesive.

Keith-N-Dar:  I commend you for just saying "piffle".  I usually say lots of less than desirable words.  Hopefully one day I will be able to just say "piffle".

Thanks Stephen, I’ll check it out.

Right now driving down the highway is like walking around with your fly down!

On a weekend trip now, parked the pod and went "Oh, F&%#!" when I realized one was gone.

Anyway, I found this site:


Anybody familiar with these guys or have a better solution for buying a replacement.

Thanks!

In the words of the old sage: Oops!

I don't know what shipping is for the site you listed, but Camping World has the item on sale.
