   Hello Sulutime,

It would have been very interesting to see your invention and solution with the plexi. However - I guess I will have placed an order before you are ready :-)

I spoke with the swedish agent today and they are telling me that there are different qualities of the plastic material. Classic - the rubbish I and you have and then there is a model named Top line.

Now I just need to find a competitive price and I will order the box and hatch nuovo rade article no 196257. I saw that you could buy them for around 80-97 in France. 

The swedish agant told me that the hatch is glued with the box and nearly impossible to separate. Much easier to change the compleet box.

Morgan

	Plastimo was allways known for cheap junky plastic parts, which fail after exposure to sunlight. Replacing the hatch with a plexi ( PMMA ) part is one solution, however be aware that the frame will most likely crack soon thereafter. I suggest that you search the camper market for a replacement of the whole gas bottle box. Campers do have the same need to store bottles and spares preventing gas toleak inside. Furthermore all camping equipment is much more realistically priced due to volume and demand.

	All very valuable inputs. However - as the Top Line model should be much superior to the Classic Line I will go for 2xTL. Price in Sweden around 110 euro each as they deducted the price for 2014. I know that the size will fit to the H400 and I doubt that the camper boxes are much cheaper. Morgan

	I think the quality of the hatches are already on the better sider compared to eg Bavaria (with their own logo). However: still not good enough! It is a sh.... solution and difficult to change!

	As far as I know the box are more or less of the same material. I tested once an osculati product and you have to be careful that the box incl. the valve fits in. As far as I know the normal valve is too high for the osculati box

	I've replaced one of them last year and spent about 70 euro in Italy. It's impossible to replace only the lid, you need all the box. About one hour of hard work. Ciao!
