Yeah. I just don't want to hit the aluminum stud frame.

ahhh.. our Lance does in fact have those.. Pod didn't.. Airstream had regular rivets.. Wink

what I would do is just drill new holes, the odds are pretty long you will hit an old hole..

They are almond colored plastic push type fasteners that are in the newer pod showers. The pods with plastic walls.

I believe they run on along the top and bottom.

2017 171. Long story short, dealer had to replace my shower surround. They did not re-install the plastic push rivets, just tape and silicone I imagine.

I purchased the rivets, but need a reminder as to the exact location and spacing.

A pic, or quick measurements would be helpful.
