My application was a pre-2008 Ventline replacement. (Fits several other applications.) Following the instructions was easy until it came time to slide the hinge apart. Some dumb guy (me) had gotten roof sealer in the hinge. Arc joint pliers and a hammer were needed to slide the hinge apart. Re-assembly was a snap. By the time I finished, it was raining. I'm glad I didn't wait until the last minute. HA! The white color looks better with the white ceiling that the original smoke color.The instructions just say to re-assemble in the reverse order of dis-assembly. That’s true, except that the friction clip goes on the opposite side from where it was originally. Photo shows how I installed my clips.
