I’m about to resort to calling Thor. I’ve had zero luck.

Last year I replaced the slider and stop on my Vegas. Got the parts from Pacific RV ( PRVParts.com: Motorhome Accessories & RV Parts Online). Fast service and reasonable cost.

Might also check Catalogs. They carry generic screen door slides in their 2018 RV parts catalog.

Ok, problem solved.
I called Dexter directly and talked with someone in Parts. The part is only $3 but shipping is $20. I went ahead and ordered two, an extra bubble, and the bow that is on the door. That part is called the mullion, FYI. They were very helpful and courteous. Here’s the contact info.

Latest on the Dexter Bubble Slide Stop
Dexter got back to me today and will not sell direct. Part that was posted here from a Direct Sale at $3.00 becomes $15 at Retail.
Shipping in the USA is Free for regular delivery.
They sent me to Pacific RV Mirrors.
Here is the link to the part.

Too bad
I ordered the plastic bump stop (that the bubble runs into) on the screen door.
The dealer charged me $15 + $20 shipping.
It ain’t right!?!&!

Has anyone replaced their OEM screen door with something that is a bit more reliable?

Reviving this thread. Got a crack in the Dexter screen door clear sliding "bubble". Any ideas where to source this with a reliable part that fits?

Mine is not "bubbled", but it is extended and does have a corner "cut out". I got the replacement last year on Amazon.

Last year we sourced the bubble & the stop on E Bay. If I recall correctly, it was under $50 plus shipping

The screen door closing handle/catch seems pretty flimsy. Only a matter of time until it also breaks. I've seen bars on some rigs that seem sturdy. I like the way the door/slider works, but it's just not beefy enough. Well... one project at a time.

Pacific RV
$42
Last year I ordered 2 (one as a spare)
I think I paid $35, so they’re a bit more expensive now.
