I have read a lot of the posts on the vent covers. I’m a little confused though I’m not so much concerned with how far it opens I think any open when it’s raining is good I’m more concerned with the installation I don’t want to drill and do anything crazy up on the roof is there one that’s easy to install somehow clips on or has existing hardware or something like that

If I understand your inquiry correctly, is what you are looking for is an after-market vent cover that allows you to open the stock vent lid when it is raining? If so, take a look at this thread: https://tab-rv.vanillacommunity.com/discussion/comment/111606#Comment_111606
The whole thread is worth reading, but also take a look at my July 2019 post. If you have a newer vent housing, it has the exterior plastic mounting brackets, which allow for really easy installation of the Dometic U1400 cover for the FantasticFan. If you don't have those brackets, then you will need the U1500 cover.

I think I read that nuCamp made a running change back in early 2016 , that all ceiling roof mounted fan did not use screw fasteners any longer . Only clamp on / sealant adhesive ? Strange that Bayliss 2019 fantastic fan uses screws ? Maybe nuCamp changed to using screws again ?
We just choose to up grade to the Maxxair , and love it . Well worth the extra effort to install a maxxair instead of a fantastic fan "cover" for us . (and a lot more $$$ I am sure, lol) .
Love having the built in rain guard feature, and remote control option of the maxxair .
Installation of the maxxair, is a lot more "intense" than installing just a "cover" , so just know what our getting into , before you decide which to go with !
Here is a step by step installation procedure with pictures of when I installed a maxxair 7500 on our 2019 320s , to help you decide if a maxaair upgrade is an option for you .

I wonder if you might clarify about the U1400 vs the U1500 model. I can't find the U1400 model easily and Dometic doesn't even list it on their website anymore. I really want to get this but afraid of not order the one that will easily snap on with the 4 pins without drilling. What I'm perplexed about is which to purchase. Then there are several models with different letters out too. It appears the BLS models which includes U1500BLS does not fit a Tab with the clips as per some of the Amazon reviews but they may be older model vents? Any help you can provide would be great. I have a 2021 Tab 320S Boondock...brand new.
