Any recommendations for a canopy vent. ARB market one that appears to be well received according to my research. Advice/comments appreciated.

The Boy bought one for our Dog box.  Solar operated and they don't seem to get wet from rain either.  Probably got it from ARB or Solar Express near Caboolture.  Cost $55 and working well.

Just remember if someone is in front of you or a road train comes the other way it will fill up with dust when on dirt roads

Is there any specific reason to get a vent? Animals/wife in the back?

The reason I ask is that we don't have vents in our canopy & haven't had any issues so far...yes it gets hot but not as hot as the inside of the tug, with the windows up!

That said, I have seen both of the following on different canopies

This one, had a bracket inside with foam to act as a filter for the dust

Main reason is to keep temperature down. Our 2nd fridge is in the canopy. I was wondering how one of these would go.
