Post by: Curley on August 30, 2020, 02:51:43 pm

Unable to locate replacement cover due to being obsolete. I have a 1995 U300 and cover has six mounting screws. Because of hail damage and age not sure i can fiberglass. Any info on this subject would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Curley

If you can't find the original cover, you might need to replace both cover and base with a new universal style. Some ideas:

Thanks for suggesting PPL. I searched their website and found universal cover mfg Camco #42160 $21.83 and ordered. Drilled four holes in new cover to match original mounting as per instructions. Easy and inexpensive replacement.

Thank you Curley
