Hello, i want to replace one of my fenders on my camper (2015 176t). it was damaged by the previous owner when they had a blowout. its only wrinkled up a tad, and the red marker light cover is gone. anyway, other than a dealer, is there anywhere online that i could source a replacement fender and marker light cover. i've looked online at E trailer without success. thanks for any tips.

I don't think you will find a direct match unless you go to Forest River. I know others have bought matching sets and replaced both. Not sure about the marker light. Maybe Amazon or Etrailer.

You can get a pair of single-axle fenders for between $33 and $100 at etrailer. 

They also sell "Trailer Fender Clearance Light" for $14.21 each.

I went to a local trailer repair/parts store (Jerry's RV Bend Oregon)and bought a complete assembly.  Same as the factory light.  I used the lens and tossed the assembly.  The parts guy said it was cheaper to purchase the assembly rather than a lens.  It was  less than $6.

Great catch! 

Unfortunately, the round-trip drive to Bend, OR is roughly 1,300 miles, and would cost close to $300 just for fuel.

I have a brand new fender for an RPod 180 sitting around. It should be the same. If you are serious about buying it let me know and will send some pics & dimensions.
