   Hello.
I searched this, no luck, if I missed it, sorry.

My 171 has a strip for the R-dome skirt that ends at the fender, both ways. Threading the skirt thru the wheel well, it will be unsupported and has to pass by the 'insulation' of some wiring and I don't think it would go by (but I may be wrong about that, it's tight).

As an alternative, I'm thinking of bridging the gap of the wheel well by a separate rectangular sheet of no-see-um proof netting pushed close to the body of the trailer, with a cut for the axle, suspended by a cord thru button holes at each end of the mosquito netting strip and tied above the fender on the outside surface.

Does this sound like it won't work?? Is there a better way? (If covered already, just give me the topic's 'address')
Thanks to all,

	We just cut ours in two pieces, and left a flap that can be closed with velcro . We slide one piece from the front, one from the rear. overlap the flap under the axle, attach velcro to itself. We also cut and hemmed a slot for the steps.
