Has anyone sourced replacement dust covers or outlet replacements for the R-Pods? Looking for the 2-pole DC auxiliary power port or its dust cover, and cable/satellite dust cover or outlet replacement for a 2015 R-Pod 171. The aftermarket suppliers checked so far don't seem to have them and haven't received a response from Forest River as of yet. The plastic became brittle on the existing covers and broke off leaving the outlets exposed.

I have a 2019 179 and I had to replace the dust covers on my 12 volt through the outside wall plugs. I just purchased new ones on Amazon. Be careful that the polarity is correct when you are install new ones if you go that way. I needed 2 because I had installed an additional one at the other end of the trailer and use them for solar charging. Don't know anything about the cable/satellite covers, I never use them. Hope this helps.
