widewader Report post Posted August 5, 2016 We took a trip last week to Woodward, OK from our home on Pickwick Lake which is about 100 miles east of Memphis, TN. The combined trip was about 1500 miles. The highways in Oklahoma, especially I-40, are really rough. When we got home, I discovered that we had lost the exterior access hatch cover for the refrigerator (not sure if that's the actual name) on the outside wall. This thing has louvers and is in the color of the surrounding wall so getting a replacement is probably going to be tough. Any ideas out there. Our motorhome is a 2007 Pace Arrow 36D.

tbutler Report post Posted August 5, 2016 These are pretty standard. If you can't find a replacement through a dealer, you might try RV salvage shops. You will almost certainly have the new one painted if you want it to match. Have a paint shop do that along with any blemishes you may find on your coach! There have been numerous discussions on RV salvage yards, use the search function at top right on this page and you should come up with a listing of these shops. Many of them ship items so you don't have to go browse. Here is a link to a recently posted list of salvage yards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted August 5, 2016 Wide one, You can go to Camping World and get the cover. They will be white. You can take a panel from the coach to a paint and body shop that can match the paint from the extra cover. I am sure other rv stores will have the cover but I got mine there. Good luck.

moonwink Report post Posted August 6, 2016 The covers come in two different varieties depending on the refrigerator manufacture. If you've got a Norcold, you'll need to find one for a Norcold and if you have a Dometic, you'll need one for a Dometic. There's not much difference and it doesn't make sense this part couldn't be the same for both models. Keep this in mind when buying a set of screens to keep the mud-daubers and wasps out. There's not much difference but there is some so don't waste your time and money buying the wrong one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

widewader Report post Posted September 6, 2016 Thanks for all the good replies. I found one on Amazon. I called Dometic to make sure and their serial number was 0.5 different. I asked if that might be because of the age difference and not model or shape. She didn't know. I wasn't surprised. So, since everything else looked the same and assuming that there couldn't be that much difference, I ordered it. Fit like it was made for it. Guess it was. Now, I've got to get over the white vent on the side of a multi-color full-body paint job. I'm thinking I'll just match the re-touch kit paint number with the color that is on the vent the most and buy a spray can (if it's available). If not, white it is.

BillAdams Report post Posted September 6, 2016 My replacement has been white for years as the top half is in a sweeping strip of one color and the bottom 2/3 is another color. I used to hate it. Today I don't even notice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildebill308 Report post Posted September 7, 2016 There are places that will custom match your colors and put it in a spray can for you. Do a search in your area. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted September 7, 2016 Just had to paint some replacement parts on the coach. Went to English Color, an auto paint company. They color matched the paint and put it in a small 6 oz. bottle that came with a spray unit. All for less then $25.00. Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
