broken shower door sliders

The slideing shower door on my 2011 378 has a number of plastic sliders that have cracked and fallen apart causing the door to swing loose at the bottom.Has anyone had the same problem and how did you fix it?

When you do find out about your shower doors please pass on who is the manufacturer of the glass shower doors and where you can get parts.
This can help us in the future.

Iggy, The shower is made by Frontline Manufacturing in Indiana. Next week I'm going to make some calls and see what I can find out. Unfortunatly it looks like it's going to look like a door replacement.

I contacted FrontLine and received an email reply.
Frontline (now called Diamond Tub and Shower) only makes the shower surround and not the doors.
Can anyone find out from Forest River who makes the sliding shower doors?

Parts are available from Irvine Shade Company. They changed the design on the roller due to continuous failure. $60.00 plus shipping replaces them all

Thanks in advance..

Mine seem to be pop riveted in place.
How did you install with screws or pop rivets?
