Hi there,
I am just starting on a conversion of a Ford Transit, LWB, medium roof. I want to put a rooflight at the back above the bed but was just wondering if anyone has any suggestions for which one to go for?
Had been looking at either one of these two:
Dometic Mini Heki S or Dometic Mini Heki Plus
Mainly because they are not too expensive and not too large!
Can anyone offer any advice on make/model or fitting tips?!
Thanks,
KatI have placed one on my MK6
I have placed one on my MK6 LWB high roof. I bought it from a caravan centre near to me and for the life of me I cannot remember the name but it was about 60/70quid.(last year)
As the roof has ribs running lengthways, I had to build the sunken parts up with good quality Bonding/sealant after cutting out the hole.
It is fine, no leaks and fits a treat.
Measure, measure and measure again before cutting, because once you’ve cut out the hole, there is no going back due to cock ups.I have placed one on my MK6
