Hello
Nobody answered my question .. so I put it back differently ...
Has anyone put a 40x40 Remis Vista in the bathroom?
Thanks for your help

Yes I did, whats your question

Merci pour votre aide mais ma question est désormais inutile. J'ai acheté un mini Heiki style et je vais l'installer ce Week-end. Je ferai un rapport écrit de l'installation.
J'ai acheté une mini Heiki car j'ai acheté le modèle avec profondeur de 43 à 67 mm. Je ne savais si la Remis Vesta était suffisante en profondeur pour la salle de bain.

I will answer in english, as my french is really not the best.

The Remis Vista is working well in the bathroom, the only thing is the thickness of the roof is too big which means there is a gap between the lower cover and the top. To close this gap i used a frame made by 4 mm thick plastic cutted into stripes to built a frame fitting between the top and the lower part. You have also to change the screws holding the top and the base together to longer ones, they are easy to find.

At the end all fits perfectly.

Thank you Macintosh for taking the trouble to answer me and for your information.
Finally, what should be remembered is that changing the bathroom skylight requires some work and thought.
You have to choose between the thickness of the roof (about 60 mm) that the mini Heiki model supports but not the Remis Vista or the fact of having problems with the upper door of the bathroom cupboard (the one that gives on the speakers) that the mini heiki condemns while the Remis Vista leaves it free. Indeed the interior frame of the mini Heiki Style is very wide.
I solved the problem by moving the hinges on the closet door that I placed on top. Now the door opens from the bottom up.

No problem, sorry i did not see your post earlier.

It fits really well, as you said it needs some ideas to cover the gap from top to bottom and the cupboard above the door and the light, but at the end it worked well.

Just let me know if you need more information, feel free to write me privately too
