I'm a newbie to the RV club and my first purchase was a 1998 Dutch Star by Newmar, I have a whistle when I'm driving and there is a slight wind coming in from the entry door and I'm sure its because the outside door trim/seal is torn a little and the inside door trim/seal is also in rough shape. My question is where can I go to order the seals or trim? I have tried the Newmar parts page and it only goes back to 1999 and even searching that I can not find the correct trim and I have been trying to call their number for well over a month off and on and all I get is a busy signal, also I've tried ordering from camping world and well that's a whole new story so what are my options I'm getting ready to take a long trip and I really don't want the whistling. Also can anyone tell me where the cab AC charge valve is located? I have traced it from one end to the other and I haven't found it but I'm sure its there. Thanks in advance for any help

And the Newmar family.
Haven't looked for the door seals myself. My air leak at the entry door , tracked down to the stationary glass having come unglued from the frame ; only held in by the outside rubber trim.

I have not dealt with this company , I came across the web site while looking for other parts , but maybe they have what you need.

I see where they offer doors, I would think they'd have to have the door gaskets/seals also.

Thanks for the reply, I was able to track down the door manufacture from some of the links above and hopefully I can get them to help me Monday

Here are two numbers at Newmar you can use. Their customer support is great. Don't understand why you kept getting a busy signal. Two things to remember: Eastern Time Zone and they're Amish (start work early).

1 (800) 731-8300

1 (866) 290-5371

Also have you serial number available to give them when asked.

Good luck.
