cant beleive i am having such a hard time finding some used seaview
cargo doors??

i didnt thik it would be this difficult? i think i have tried every rvsalvage
yard in the country? nobody seems to have these doors?

i guess all i can do is keep trying to find some? i would have thought that
they would be easy to find since its a 1999 motorhome and is almost 13 years old. u would think there would be a few of these that were wrecked
the doors would be still plentiful??? i guess i will just keep searching.

thanks for any help anyone can give me on finding these blue plastic
cargo doors.

These folks will make you new doors out of fibre glass not ABS. I delt with them after the wreck and there a little hard to get on the phone, but they did the work, a new rear cap and a bay door, and it worked fine.
Ortega Manufacturing Inc. | Del Craft Plastics | National RV There is a five to seven week wait because all the parts are made to order.

You can see the results here.

the berrys

thanks for your reply. yes i called ortega, however they wanted like
$500 per door and the doors are fiberglass and not the blue plastic centrex like the original doors.

i really am not trying to get cheap but i really didnt want to spend $500
per door.

i think i will just keep searching the salvage yards to find the original blue plastic doors that will match the rest of my coach.

it will be a quest i am sure but if i keep pursuing it i might get lucky and
find my doors??? i sure hope so. thanks again

I wish you good luck! I need to replace some of mine on a #8341 model.
haven't had any luck either. mine crack from cold weather. someone stated a while ago that they can be repaired but I doubt it, plastic isn't more than 1/32" thick.

plastic doors?? dont know what else to do but keep searching the salvage yards?

other doors on the motorhome. i will keep searchin. thanks to all.

looks like your in the same boat as the rest of us. I think there is a large RV salvage yard in Missouri somewhere but don't recall name --someone may know. try this website: http://www.nationalrv-centralstates....intenance.html or since you are in California try
http://www.temeculavalleyrv.com. also, these plastic doors were primer gray ( not blue). National had to replace 7 of my 11 doors years ago--they paid for doors, shipping & installation to rv dealer in Indiana and I paid only for them to painted Blue. also may want to check with dealers who sold National Rv's---mine went out of business years ago. I know Lazydays in Florida sold National products. let us know if you have any luck!!

looks like web pages aren't coming up--may need to type them in.
