Hello all,

I am replacing my factory roof vent with a Maxxair vent. I removed the trim
around the interior of the old vent and see no method of retention. Is the
old vent secured solely from the top side? With screws into the aluminum
skin?

The reason that I ask is that I can't climb on the roof now. I am having
back surgery on the 30th. It's too painful to be climbing right now, and I
probably won't be able to get up there for a couple of months after the
surgery. I want to replace the vent before the rain begins, and my
neighbor's 17 year old has offered to help me. I'm trying to get a feel for
the difficulty in this project before I commit to accepting his help.

Thank you,

Guy Lopes
