Any suggestions for finding a replacement screen door slide cover for my Forester? CW and Amazon don’t seem to have a match. Anyone know the manufacturer of the door?

What doesn't match - color, size? I see lots of them on line. Try searching "screen door sliding bubble."

Opps should have been clear, yes size, color and shape. Would prefer to find OEM replacement but not critical. Seems like most were larger than mine although one seemed adjustable.

Well after searching multiple RV stores and online had no luck finding a replacement door slide. Also tried hanging a screen and then a piece of plexiglas which sorta worked.

Thought I would try my dealer a 3rd time and got a different part guy. Presto! He say “sure we can get that”. Two weeks later it shows up on my porch! A little nerve wracking to install. Had to flex it to fit in but made it.

$13 for part, $12 shipping.

Amazing how much the old one aged in just 4 yrs. May coat with 303 protectant.

Glad you found one that works. I wish my TT had a door with a release handle like that. Mine is like most of them, you have to slide the panel back to reach the release knob. I added one of those thingy's that you can release the latch without moving the panel but it didn't last long with the 2 g' boy's around
