Weep Hole Covers

I have a 2011 Georgetown 350. The windows are made by Hehr. I seem to be getting a lot of wind noise through the weep holes. Has anyone found weep hole covers that fit? My weep holes are about 7/8" wide.

This is a new one on me..I have had 11 units with Hehr windows and never had wind noise from the weep holes. These vents are needed to ensure your windows perform properly in rain or damp conditions. Plugging those weep vents will cause you no end of grief. They are there for a reason. I find I get alot of wind noise from the mirrors more than anything else...

We did a search for weep hole covers for our 378TS and were informed that HEHR apparently doesn't make them. We then contacted a local RV dealer and he noted that some of the newer RVs in his showroom are equipped with weep hole covers on the drivers and passengers windows. I realize this doesn't tell you where to get them, but maybe it is an indication that they may soon be more readily available. Ours are 7/8" also.

I agree with polkatronron. If you want to be sure it's the weep holes. Just take a roll of electrical tape and cut some 1-1/2" pieces to cover them. Drive around and see if it made a difference. It's easy to remove and you won't be guessing if they're the source of the noise. Let us know your results.
