Hi,

I have a 2005 550/6 and was wondering if its possible to convert the main skylite to enable it to fully open?

When we were looking around, we noted the newer models open right up, yet this year/model one only opens up a crack.

I would have thought that it must just be a conversion kit but has anyone tried it?

Thanks.

We bought bailey ranger 2003 model 470/4 and at first i thought that it only opened like yours barely a crack then i saw others and theirs fully opened that's when i relised ours once opened can slide forward makeing that crack nearly the whole opening open.

I'd assume yours would be similar.

Your Roof vent not only opens but slides as well , they all do on Rangers of that age
