Carefree awning obsolete parts needed

Does anyone want to part with some obsolete awning end supports or recommend a (boneyard) source in the Michigan area ? Seems too many openings without unlocking them have caused bends beyond repair and are tired of them rubbing the drip rail. Alot of 1994-2000's have them. Yes we have tried to bend them back but messes up the area under the plastic slide clip locks.

They are "Carefree of Colorado" Omega style w/ Alumaguard (not Omega II) and look like question marks LH & RH. Pic attached.

Thanks

Visones RV salvage located in Kentucky. I bought a complete window awning over ten feet long and it was exactly as they said it was, perfect. Good company to deal with.

I'll be following this. I need the catch thingy that is just below where the curve starts. Haven't had much luck so far.

Call 877-548-2125, ask for BOB. It is an RV salvage yard in Mo. They have a lot of stuff. Name of the place is Colaw I believe, Hope this helps.

Update,
A very nice IRV2 member was able to help me out with the 2 arms and 2 white locks. (plus 2 spare arms and locks)

Another option after I called CareFree they gave me a number of a guy in Fla. David Jones who has the white arms ($100ea) and plastic slide locks ($20ea). phone #813.956.6827

If anyone still needs slightly used parts I am willing to pass on the favor and sell my spares for what I paid for them plus shipping to any IRV2 member. The ones I'm replacing are shot so not available.

Regards and can't say enough great things about the members of this forum. Now I have to figure out how to replace them without letting the magic spring tension out. Comments welcome.

All replaced and good with the help of the DW and instructions from another member on IRV2. We are now "happy campers" literally.

There have been some places that take in bent ones and have successfully re-aligned them and sell as used.

Other than salvage yards you could try Shade-Pro outside of San Diego.
