Tried Search, no luck. I am considering replacing the screen door slide on my fiver. I looked at kits from Camping World, but reviews said they are no good. Has anyone replaced theirs as a DIY project? What did you use and how do you like the results?
Thanks.

The sliding panel that can be closed when using the screen door by itself. I have seen pics of some mods where the stock panel is replaced by a clear one. I was unable to find what I was looking for with Search.

The only place I could find a replacement the size I needed was from the door manufacture. I wanted to replace the white one with a clear one. The manufacture didn't have clear so I am still using the old one. The ones at Camping World were too small for my door.

Check with one of the rv parts shops. I got mine at shop in western NY and kept it when I traded to the 5er. I think it was Campco or somthing. Look for screen door parts.

I am not sure if this is what you are looking for but I thought I would give it a try.

Oooops I knew that but for some reason I had slide out in my head. 
I replaced what you are talking about in a previous RV when someone put their hand through it and cracked it. I got it from Camping World and it worked fine and looked like the original.

That is what I was looking at but the reviews were not too favorable. I have seen pics somewhere of, I thought, a DIY replacement. I was hoping for some info on that.
Thanks for your replies.

Here is a link to Skipnchar Screen Door Mod complete with pictures and description. Also others that have chimed in with theirs along with my no-mod solution. I'm sure Skip will show up and give us an update.
