I'm not sure how to reply from the digest mode of the server. Hope this makes it. I just installed a sky light from Bus Depot and had no problems. It's probably because I also installed a new gasket from Bus Depot at the same time. The first time I closed the cover I pressed it closed from the outside of the van and left it in the closed position for several days. This seemed to give it time to "seat with the seal. I also installed a new closing mechanism. One of the nylon wheels on the closing mechanism came cracked, but I had new wheels made from brass to solve future problems. I was so happy to find replacements that this little inconvenience wasn't a problem. George |
