Hi. I’m looking for an RDome for my 2017 RPod 179.   Anyone selling one, just bought one, or know we’re to buy.
We live near Zmadison, Wi.Thanks

One is occasionally listed for sale in the Campers flea Market section at the bottom of the forum page.
They come in different colors and sizes, so make sure the proper unit is purchased. also, Forest River and your local dealer can get them, but they are very proud of them and not cheap. It seems that most of the newer units are now coming with the roll up awning instead of the dome, so you may have trouble finding one.
the R dome is a valuable piece of equipment-we use ours a lot.

Do you the Keder Rail on your trailer? 
http://pahaquecustom.com/collections/trailer-tents is another source. Still not cheap by any means.

I've made up a fly to fit the Keder and use that most times. Only if buggy do I setup the Dome now. I wish the side panels on mine zipped out, that would have been the best fly!

Regarding RDomes for 2017 -179 — comparing the “accessory” RDome supplied by ForestRivet and the model made by PahaQue what are the differences?   Are they the same size, quality, place of manufacture?
