replacing a broken cab light

We've been traveling Eastern Oregon for a few weeks. It is amazingly beautiful, with fabulous biking. Unfortunately, there are also a few places with low hanging branches. I'm learning to look both up and down on small roads. (For bikers, routes 19 and 402 near Kimberly OR, are about as beautiful as anything I've ever ridden.)

Unfortunately, one branch took out a cab light. I have yet to find where I can order a replacement. Has anyone found one that matches the originals for a 2015 Vegas 24.1?

On a side note, I followed the advice from another thread and added the sounds deadening and thermal may to the doghouse. While we didn't notice it being much quieter, it it's definitely cooler, which was really nice in the hot climate.

Andy

Oops, perhaps that's not the right name... The amber lights that are teardrop shaped on the top front of the RV. I see some on eBay, but they look like they have a different shape. I could make that work, but it would be nice to have an exact replacement.

Thanks,
Andy

You can buy just singles if you look around

Sadly, I'm pretty sure I tossed the ones I took off mine but PM me if you want & I'll take a look in the garage to see if they are still out there....

Blw2 - that's way better than anything I found. Thanks. I'll order them, and see how it goes.

Excuse being off topic but did you mean cycling (hopefully) or motorcycling?

For us, that would be bicycling. Quiet, open roads with unbelievable scenery. There were a few motorcycles enjoying it as well.

Regards,
Andy
