R dome track fit issues

Here is a pic of the two different tracks.

Marwayne,

I'm still trying to understand this thing and I'm willing to accept the improperly installed or damaged large track answer. However, with your knowledge, would the larger keder even physically fit in the smaller track? If not, that would seem to solve the mystery.

I'm fairly sure it is a track installation error. I have read that for several years the large track has been used, if you have the large track, why is it an installation error? Was it damaged?

Podster - exactly. When it was installed they opened the track wider at several spots. And at those areas the dome tent falls out of the track. We know what the fix is, but we have to decide if we want to risk trying to fix it ourselves. If we take it to the dealership, even though it is a simple fix, it could sit there for a while. I know it's winter, but that's camping weather around here.

CharlieM, no it will not. I had a problem with the dome, they sold me a dome for the 151, wish was to short, they also told me that they can't install the bigger track that it had to be installed by FR (bs).My reply, just get me the track I put it in myself,so I did.
