Rated 1 out of 5 by from Picture This? I could only purchase this item online from Home Depot? I wanted to replace my air vents with the Metal cap vent that is pictured, when I got home opened the box.....same crappie plastic screw vent cap I have already. Item I received not same as pictured, The plastic screw gets hot and will strip if over tighten even a little.
