In our 2003 dynasty 42' I had hail damage and had to have it replaced. Mikes lp Maplewood Mn ordered one for me it was just a bunch of screws and caulk from the roof and new one is in. They do not make smoked anymore but the clear made it a lot brighter in the shower.

Call him and he can probably ups one to you from distributer.

Ted, I'm guessing that your skylight is the same as mine, a double pane unit. I replaced mine 2 years ago and at the time I was unable to find anyone that made a double pane replacement, everything that I could find out there was all single pane. Not an issue with fit, but perhaps a little less thermal efficiency. I also got mine from eztopsworldwide. Use care when installing the new one and go real easy (don't crank down) on the screws or you will crack the plastic instantly... or like happened in my case, I developed cracks radiating out from a few of the screws after about 6 months. Good luck and happy motoring.

I think EZ top recommends that you don't use screws at all.

How about getting a larger one and mounting it with just tape
above and over the older one for better thermal efficiency ?!?

I did that on a skylight in the kitchen of my previous home...
(a bonus was when the hail hit the top one, it protected the lower one )
