Coleman Front Storage Compartment Replacement

[subda]

The front storage compartment on my 98 Coleman Sunridge has developed several cracks in the plastic housing.    Where can I buy a replacement front storage compartment? The cracks are located at the top rear of the compartment where the hinge connects for the lid. I suspect the cracks are from stress or over use. I have tried to repair the cracks, but the repairs only lasts a couple of months.


Thanks for any help

I believe the only place to buy one is from a Fleetwood dealer.  Fleetwood doesn't sell parts any other way.

tlhdoc is right.  And they rip you off doing it.  After the legal battles between Coleman and Fleetwood, the latter doubled their prices on parts.  That cover will set you back more than a couple Franklins.

Thanks for the replys.

I had contacted the dealer before posting. The cost of a replacement compartment would be about a grand, yes $1,000 dollars plus installation.

I was hoping somebody would know of other supplier or a used parts dealer.

thanks again joe

Actually, on that year you are really not talking about parts...

Other than the doors, the entire front compartment is built as part of the pop up.  It's a rebuilding job rather than a replacement of off the shelf parts.
