RV Repair: Coleman Popup Exterior Repair, plastic molding, popup camper


Question
I own a 2001 Coleman Westlake popup camper purchased used in 2005).  The plastic molding exterior at the front and rear have a few cracks - the top portion of the truck has a large crack and has been leaking. I need to either repair the cracks or replace the plastic molding and the possibly the truck lid.

Q1 - what should be used to fix the cracks ?

Q2 - How do I get replacement parts ?

Note - the wood under the leak is looking like it should also be replaced - how big a job is this ?

Thanks for your time.

Answer
1) A good silicone caulking should take care of the cracks, if they are not too large.
2) You will need to contact Coleman parts department to obtain parts. If you still have an owners manual, there should be a number or webpage listed in it.

The wood shouldn't be too difficult to replace. You just need to take the exterior trim loose, and the wood is probably just stapled or screwed on.
Take it apart a little at a time to see what you've got.
