| Subject: Adding roof fan to Super Custom Limited Fri Oct 19, 2018 1:20 pm | |
| Hey all,
I recently picked up a 1993 Super Custom Limited with 3 sunroofs, I wanted to turn this into a camper conversion but have run into a big issue which is how to install some type of ventilation system like a Fantastic fan/maxxair fan. I need 14"x14" opening...has anyone successfully cut a hole in the roof anywhere with the triple sunroof? It looked like it could potentially go behind the big middle one (and make the middle one un-usable as it would go in the place that the middle roof retracts into) but I have no idea what's under the roof interior and don't want to tear it off as I don't know if I will be able to get it back once I do that.
Any ideas or photos of a triple sunroof model with the interior removed? | |

| No, behind the middle sunroof is the sunroof rails and where both sunroof and blind stow when open. The rails pretty much go back right until the twin rear sunroof so there's no space there unless you remove the ability to slide the middle roof.
I'm not sure why you need to add ventilation to a van that has the ability to pop up front and rear roofs in a reasonably waterproof way, and also if you have the front window covers you can leave the front windows cracked open a little.
Removing the seats and designing a working camper layout is probably more important, I had some ideas about that. | |

| When stationary a big fan is what you want. When it is really hot, an open sunroof is not enough. We are happy with our Maxxair. But having the sunroofs already, I would try to add a huge fan in the opening of the sunroof. Maybe just by putting it on the edge of opening so you can remove it when closing the sunroof and you dont change the interior. | |
