2008 Sea Breeze Entry Light
The lens over the entry light/grab bar on our MH has broken (left the light on over night and the plastic crumbled) and I can't find a replacement. I even went to the manufacturer (Bargman) and they don't have any and won't build more. Does anyone have an idea where I might find a replacement, even if it means replacing the entire fixture? Thanks for your help.
Alan.

Bought ours at Camping World. Was a perfect fit.

Thanks, I should have mentioned that I checked with camping world and they say the part is discontinued. They are looking for a replacement but no luck so far.

The light is made by Bargman. I was able to find 2 last year and I don't remember who. Someone on irv2 tried to order 1 after me and they didn't have anymore. I may have gotten the last 2. I'm not sure why they would discontinue a part for a very common light. I would start with a google search of "Bargman RV porch light lens". Good luck.
Just remembered. It was eTrailer.com

Here is a link to my thread. There is a link to an Ebay seller that has them.
Where Can I Find one of These please? - iRV2 Forums

I found 3 of the lenses at JDL Trailer Sales in Pueblo, CO (719-564-8056). When I described the part I wanted, the parts lady was familiar with it and found it in stock so I ordered 2. Apparently, Bargman stopped making it but another manufacturer stepped in to manufacture a replacement. I haven't received it yet so I'm not 100% sure it will fit but the person who suggested JDL was sure it would. I'll confirm that here once I get the lens and install it.
Thanks again for all of your help and suggestions.
Alan.

The lens I ordered from JDL fit perfectly. Cost was $10.50 plus shipping. The link by Richard S. to Pacific RV Parts has the lens for $9.88 plus shipping so that may be the preferred online source. I bought 2 and intend to buy an LED bulb to replace the OEM bulb so the lens won't be subjected to so much heat stress when left on all night. Hopefully, both will last longer. Thanks again to all for your help in finding this lens.
Alan.

Found mine on Ebay, then switched to LED lights, less power consumption and a lot less heat...

I found one at a local RV Parts dealer, store manager said they were phasing them out, so I bought all he had (3). I'm planning on keeping my Seabreeze until it wears out! I would suggest replacing the bulb with a LED, keeps the heat down.
