If you have any questions please ask, although ours is a Swift Kontiki 655 the procedure will be the same for most skylights.

Love it when KZbin deliver just what I need. Ive a 22 year old Sprinter with "2" shower units now..... It leaks sooo bad (the skylight) even though I used a tin of marine sealant. So.... armed with your video and a dry day I willl let you know how it goes..... (re "dry day", its the UK, its Summer.... )

Hey big guy! That was just what we needed to know! We have our old relic cleaned up and have serious leaking with our sky light. Thank you for doing such an amazing job of walking us through the process. Big love!

I do enjoy Gary's DIY. Good job he's good with a Stanley knife! I was on the edge of my seat when he cut that sealant nozzle lol. Fingers crossed it all worked and you don't have to go through that process again for a long time.
