We have the exact same problem. (the plastic coming off as the tent enters the slide channel) I did the same thing and it seemed to work.

We are going to try cleaning the road grime off of the areas where we put the suction cups and see if they work any better. Smile

gave up on the suction cups, looking for those clips, used a rock to hold it tight....

As for hte skirt, had to cut it a couple times, but it can't really hold anything in or our that wants out or in...  There is a company in Colorado that makes skirts for the r-pod, gave an estimate of $1500 for the 171 skirt.  passed.

Others have purchased high-quality suction cups, not using the ones that came with it.

I just bought my 179 a month ago and used the dome last weekend. While not a perfect fit, it worked well.
