Norcold 621156Polar White Refrigerator Vent Review

The Norcold vent cover was slightly larger than the original cover for my 2006 RAINIER. I only used the lid and not the receiver as my portal is still in great condition. It was easy to alter the perimeter and protrusions using a utility knife and a Dremel tool to smooth out the edges. Now it fits perfectly!

I've tried everything to make it fit, from enlarging the hole to placing it in the sun to make it fit and it's just awful. He wants to get off and not fit together like he should. I've tried connecting it upside down and the way it is now but it's too flimsy like it's rubber.

Worked when I bought my van it didn't have a vent cap, it's a very easy replacement, screw on just unscrew a couple of Phillips screws, make sure you save. Remove the bezel with a razor blade or if you can remove the old silicone, put on the new bezel, line up the holes, tighten the screws and seat the cover up.

Good product. Unfortunately there were 2 stickers on it, one of which is not so easy to remove. I never understood why the manufacturer does this. Anyway, I tried the 3M adhesive remover but unfortunately it permanently discolored the panel around the sticker. Treat yourself and it worked. I would therefore recommend being careful with the product you use to remove the sticker!

It seems a bit stronger than the OEM panel. Not quite the same plastic. The bottom latches are slightly wider than the OEM latches, so you will need to use the included frame unless you want to file the tabs to fit the new plate onto the OEM frame. Suggestion: If one of the top plastic latches on your OEM vent panel fails, remove it before you head down the freeway and order only the latches. Otherwise, buy one of these and spend more money painting it the color of your RV.

I was disappointed that the only Norcold fridge vent doors I could find were either white or black. Most motorhomes (where this is fitted) are definitely not black, and many of them are not white. However, the khaki spray paint got close enough to the van to pass. Expensive piece of plastic but my original ripped - I'm sure this one will rip over time and I'll need another. What a business model, making something so cheap it breaks and then charging someone a regular income every few years.
