Has anyone found a source for the "Watco Plastics" vent caps used on '76 Royales? Mine has a universal replacement cap (springy legged) that has crumbled to pieces. I'd like to find an original type replacement. The Watco is a quarter turn on/off type cap.

Gary,
Most "RV" stores carry them in stock. Popular cap used on a lot of
RV's.

Thanks for the replies! I looked at the online catalogs for my local dealers and they didn't seem to list them. Mostly they had vent cap kits that needed a new flange screwed to the roof. Perhaps if I go to their shop, the actual cap may be the same, as you say.
Thanks again

Yes you will have to buy the whole unit and only use the top cap or cover.
