Water heater compartment bay door on U320CSE

My husband took our coach out to get diesel before prices go. As he was driving the bay door over the water heater came open.
He pulled over to close it and caught a speed limit sign on the door damaging it.
I wondered if anyone knows how many years of the U320 would have had the same size door over the water heater.
I checked two salvage yards and they don't have one from a 1995. I wondered if another year would be the same size.
Thanks, Susan

Could also search your local boat yard for fiberglass repair. Regardless how bad you may think it is it's probably repairable

James has told me sitting around the campsite that he can fix anything on a coach exterior.

I seem to recall they recently built an entire bay door "from scratch".

Yep, he was saying that customer got a quote with timeline to build a door
 He build it way quicker and cheaper then the other quote.
