Thanks for the info. Sorry I can't make the International. My/our trailer is still undergoing repairs.

They are old, somewhat yellow, like most of them get. One thing about mine, though. They have one or two extra holes in them. I installed additional toggle switches for each light. I prefer to make sure that they are off, and it also saves wear/tear on the rotating switch if you turn them off with the toggle. It' easy to do, just splice into the circuit running to the existing switch. Saves a little power since we can leave them on the low setting while boondocking.   BTW, you can get ahold of new covers very easily by ordering from A/s. The new ones are made almost identical to the old ones, BUT, they are a beautiful nice WHITE color!   Airstream Replacement Part # is 201154. "Lens, ceiling light". It's listed as fitting '72 through '77. Cost $11.49 apiece, not bad.   I haven't been able to locate a replacement for the little round knob, though. It kinda looks funny with this nice new white cover and a dingy yellow knob! I cobbled one from an old white dimmer switch by drilling it out and using the threaded portion of the old knob. Not a perfect fix, but better than nothing.   I'd like to know if they make a replacement cover for the reading lights located over the beds--anybody know???   -Dallas     -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Robert Gill Sent: Friday, June 08, 2001 10:12 AM To: Multiple recipients of VACList Subject: [VAC] Re: Fw: Fantastic Fan -- good question Daisy   Yes! If your getting rid of them please let me know. They would be perfect replacements for the lexan and duct tape that is up there now.   Thanks Bobby Gill '66 Ambassador Valdosta, GA    ----- Original Message ----- From: D Welch Sent: Thursday, June 07, 2001 11:06 PM To: Multiple recipients of VACList Subject: [VAC] Re: Fw: Fantastic Fan -- good question   Dallas go see http://www.tiac.net/users/jtdjtd/aspix/airstream3.html there is a section on my Fantastic fan installation. I happily lost the light, mine look like they are stained with nicotine.. I am thinking of taking all of them out, anybody want 'em ? I like the clear top and the fan really pulls air. Daisy
