Winnebago Clearance Light Lens Replacement

[EricT]

I have a 2014 Winnebago Sightseer 30A which we love. I recently lost one of the rear red clearance lens covers on my rig. I thought it would be a simple placement, but Winnebago Industries informs me that they cannot get a replacement and the company that made them is out of business. I've done a lot of research and can't find a replacement. Anyone have any insight on how I could locate one? It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! Be safe, be well!

Unfortunately Eric, you are asking a question that has been asked many times before.. I was in the same position you are in now about 3 years ago with the Winnie I used to own. Not sure you are going to be successful in locating this lens.

If you can't find one, then what you can do is to move some lenses around... I lost one of the yellow lenses that were in the front over the windshield. I took one of the yellow lenses from one of the mid-coach lights and moved it to the front. I went to, I think Camping World and picked up a new light fixture and replaced it from my donor light location. That will not be as noticeable.

If you end up going this route, take a small amount of plumbers putty and apply it around the fixture to create some additional friction so you won't lose another lens.

I hope this makes sense...

Etrailer.com sells a side marker/clearance light that looks the same, and is the same length as what your tape is showing (3-7/8", even though the listing says 3-3/4" - watch the video). Under $16, and available in amber or red.

If it's not an exact match, just replace both of them for consistency. Being LED, you may want to anyway if your originals are incandescent. Or replace the rear side marker, as the previous poster suggested, and move that lens to the missing spot, if it's the same.

Edit: Looking at pics of the Sightseer, it doesn't look like the side marker is separate in the rear. Looks like part of the tail lights. If that's the case, I'd probably just replace all five back there with LED's. So they look the same in the dark.
