Topic: RP-178 factory cover Posted: 02 Nov 2013 at 1:35pm |
I ordered an factory cover for my new 178 and installed it today. I am not pleased with the fit. When
aligned with the door edge and the front of the air conditioner the
back seems are all saggy and does not align with the rear black air
foil. Seems like it will just trap and hold water. has anyone else had this problem? Did they send me a cover that was too small?

It it fits your 178 there isn't a chance that it's too small. Only the covers that fit the 178 will actually fit it, the others would be way too small for it.

My factory cover was a freebie with my 178. Fits fine to me. Put it on and drove the pod down to the pod storage yard. Worked fine.

Where did you order your cover from? I called Classic Covers and they told me covers for the 178 wouldn't be released until early December and will fit up to 18 ft. R Pod. So we decided to wait...be curious to see where you got yours!

Currently all you can do is buy the Factory cover from Forest River. Until Classic is able to get their's released.

What is the link for Forest River where you can order these things? All I've found is polo shirts, hitch covers, promotional items, etc.
