A couple of the flex-keys on my awnings need to be replaced so I will buy enough to replace all of them. As far as I can tell these are probably the originals. I can only find 1 tag on the awnings and there are no numbers on it. Time and humidity has washed away the work order #, etc. And my coach has been repainted so I don't even know the original decal colors. The awnings are a beige or tan sunbrella fabric.
So would anyone know what color FT used in 1998 and 1999?
Thanks.
I don't think the flex keys were color matched to the awning fabric. My awnings are maroon and the flex keys are grey.
Thanks Dale, that'll make it easy! I'll call Zipdee now and get some ordered. I also wanted to get a piece to patch the big awning where the door has worn through.
Just spoke with Zipdee and they said the main awning uses a 1" width. The window awnings are probably 2". I'm not at the coach but does anyone know if the window awnings are 2"?
I found them listed in a parts list for window awnings and they are Bright or Satin.

Mine are not 2". 1" sounds about right. And at least one of mine uses no flex key at all. The awning rail is different on one window and connects directly to the aluminum awning cover. I happened to have taken these pictures recently to prepare for my Girard conversion.
I was on the phone with Zip Dee yesterday, spoke to Randy who was very knowledgeable with foretravel's as well. The main awning has a one inch flex key, and 2" on the window awnings according to Randy. I have checked all my awnings (5), and he is correct.
On the window awnings, they call it a 2" but is closer to 1 1/2" and $3.94 per ft, the 1" wasn't much cheaper.
The aluminum slats are what is bright or satin. The flex key is not aluminum but is vinyl. When I replaced the ones on our 295 I had to look at each one as they were not all the same.
the large window awnings over the drivers side window and the passenger side front window are about 8 ft long. those were 2". the rest were 1" on mine.
