Exclamation Survived the Hail and Wind Storm!

Last night we had a hail storm. Lucky it only lasted 10 minutes, but it seemed like an hour. Now we have two busted vents to replace. The roof received about 10 small dents. The front vent started leaking and the window behind passenger seat leaked. In addition to the hail we had 50-60 mph winds. I feel blessed compared to folks in Joplin and Oklahoma.
I need suggestions where to purchase new vents at affordable price. I needed to replace the old vents, now I must replace them before the duct tape gives away.

Was glad Thumper was in covered storage last night. We had quarter sized hail at the house (18 miles NE of downtown Dallas) but pulled the TV far enough into the garage to avoid any dings.

Fanastic Fans provided very helpful information. Thier fans will work as replacements, you need a garish adapter to fit the curviture of the airstream. FF gave us a lead to Florida Dist. 810-444-0607. They were extremely helpful and had great product knowledge on replacement vents for airstreams. The Fans are in stock and will ship today, with a 3 day delivery.
