vinyl edge trim for the roof

Message Share Topic Printable Version Google Delicious Digg StumbleUpon Windows Live Yahoo Bookmarks reddit Facebook MySpace Newsvine Furl Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic

   I have a 2015 RP178 Hood River Edition.  We took out the pod for the Memorial day weekend and I noticed most of the edge trim is cracking or split from our intense Arizona sun.
Now for my question.  Anyone know of a source for the edge trim along the roof?  I was looking on amazon and it looks like Camco makes vinyl trim but it was either in 1 inch or 3/4 inch width.  That seems too big to me.  I took my Pod to the storage lot already so I can't measure.  But I was thinking more on the 1/2 inch to maybe 5/8 inch.

Anyone know exactly what to order?

Any help is appreciated.

	The strip is 1 inch wide. When you replace the strip pull out a few screws at the bottom of the channel, if they are rusty you have a water problem.

	Hmmm.... I would have never guessed 1 inch. Maybe because of the curve it looks less. Anyway. Now my next question. I assume to replace it I just start on one end and feed the trim through the channel? Or is there another method?

	Do it on a warm day, you have to pinch it to get it in.
