That's correct, but on ours the gap is so large leaves and sometimes even rain will blow in. But we still think they are well worth the investment and they work for 99% of rain/wind conditions. While in CO this summer we never closed the vents all summer.

I have the Maxxair covers, and agree, they are great. But I still haven't found the brand of the original vents used. Mine are in such sad shape that I end up not even using them at all. While I'm not having any problems with leaking (the eternabond fixed that up), I just want to replace them for cosmetic issues.

Your best bet may be a call to VentLine regarding the availability of the "clamp in" model. All the new VentLine vents look like they use screws on the exterior frame.

I did find a replacement vent cover for the old style vents, and more:

That's for the link. I used that to find the right vent cover for my 06 TM2619. One vent cover had a crack. When I just pushed on it slightly it shattered due to being so brittle. The other vent is still in good shape. Ordered two from etrailer.com and loved their replacement video. Very helpful.
