Our Solera is a 2015.

The green/red light on the switch works and you can hear a woofer thump when it is turned on and off but the screen has no action whatsoever.

On the advice from Jensen...

We have a complete set in the garden shed - I don't like the look of them. What would you offer for one or more. I think the rears go for $95.

I agree with the comments so far - you will probably have plenty of fuel when the last bar is reached. We were on a secondary road in Texas last year when all the bars were gone we ended up stopping...

gas strut

I got one from JR Products - SKU GSNI-5300-10 - the "10" indicates 10 pounds of opening force which is much better than the original part. The door opens more gently.
