Innovative Marine new tops

[Gusto]

Hello Everyone,
I purchased a new Innovative Marine 30L that was never used but it has the old style top ( with the clips) I went to Innovative Marine's website and saw they have a new DIY top with notches that overhang now my question is does anyone know if the Mesh is different from the old ones which are a thick white plastic screen. looks different on the website but I just want to make sure before I purchase it.

Thanks Gus

Don't know what the old lid looked like but here's a closeup of the new style:

Very similar to ClearView lids.

Hi RCpeterson.. thank you for taking the picture!! they look much better. Here is what the old one looks like..

Oh yeah, huge difference.

Yes the old version seems to block some light..

I bought my 30L just a few months ago (February) and mine came with the new updated version. Much better than the original top. I would call them if I were you and ask for a replacement?

 

[Gusto]

Thank you Jadams.. I will give that a try.

I had an acrylic lid made for my IM nuvo 10 by tap plastics. It has a hole in the center to let light through. I just use the included clips, and it doesn’t look that bad
