First time Trailer Owner Washington State
Hello All,

My wife and I are new to RV'ing and just bought a one year old Coachman Cataliina 253RKS. I need to fix a few things but have much to learn, getting my truck ready to pull it.

I'm missing a couple rear clearance lights on the sides and need to find where to get replacements. Hard to find that shape.

Welcome to the forum and to the world of RVing . You can try an auto parts store or to an RV dealer to find the side lens. Enjoy Later RJD

Welcome from Marysville, WA.

Depending on where you live in WA, there's a company named Six Robblee's (family had six members when they started out back when trucks had to be hand cranked to start) and they sell all kinds of truck and trailer equipment. They may well have the lenses you need in stock.

They have locations in Everett, Seattle, Tacoma, Yakima, and Spokane so chances are one is close to you.

Thanks for the info, I'm in Vancouver so I'll start by contacting my local dealer. I'm so new to this I'm getting all the hookups in place for truck and trailer, as well as doing a few finishing things like these lenses that were missing.

Welcome and congrats on the trailer!
Most of the marker lights can be found at an autoparts store or even some of the walmarts carry them.
Or get on Amazon, you will find them there for sure.
