You've paid for warranty in your purchase price......take it back to the dealer.

True, but anyhow I'm going to add a gutter for for safe mind reasons.

FR DID have gutters over the bunk doors but apparently dropped them when the new pre-attached tent ends started.

There is a wider gutter with a radius on each end the channels more water away and does not require the spouts on each end. It is the same as you see over many entrance doors. I had them on my Hybrid and they worked great.

Can you post a pick of your clamps? There may be some things to help there also.

Not what I was talking about but this would work also.

What I had on mine was aluminum extrusion about an inch and a half wide with radius ends.

I am not very good fixing something like that. I have a couple of minor issues with the Roo, and I have to get them fixed as warrantee items. I thought I would get it all done in one trip. I really only camp during the summer, and some weekends before and after summer, so I am going to set it up soon. I want to add a second battery, and maybe have them winterize for the first time. I hope the toilet is an easy fix.
