Anyone have for sale or know where I might look for the lid that goes on the old pocket style water fill fixture? Not the round screw on one but the rectangular flip lid.

Wish I could help you Anna. My original had been replaced with a plastic one and I discarded it and did not replace my water tank. There is a thread here about replacing the water fill. I'll see if I can find it for you. I don't think you are going to have much luck finding just the lid if it's the flip style (that's what mine had, oops maybe I should have kept it). There is a thread about replacing the fill inlet and there was someone selling the vintage filler inlets back in Oct. vintagetrailertalk.freeforums.net/thread/1263/install-new-fresh-water-tank |

Are you talking about the old pot metal fills? Please take a photo of the fill. There are different lids to fit different brands.

Aw Susie! How could you? A mortal sin to throw those away. Actually I just about did the same thing with some of my stuff until a friend stopped me. im replacing the tank with a low volume set up under the sink, I just wanted to keep the original look on the outside, plus don't want a hole to patch! |

I almost said if anyone can find it, LadyW can. Mine was that kind but it was plastic. One of the few things not original on mine. That style looks good, a little sleeker than the screw on kind; the screw on kind gives you a good seal. |

Oh fantastic Lady W, thanks, I've put it on my watch list. It has 3 days left on auction so I'll be watching it and bid on Saturday.

If you have never tried. "esnipe" it's a great way to win an ebay auction on something you really need. Google it. it works.

Ann, don't use the insert button. Just copy IMG from Photobucket and "paste" in your post...
