Shade question

Hi all,
Where would I go to purchase those "spools" that the day/night shades thread through? One of mine broke and looking at the others, it won't be long before they do the same. By the way, I used a metal bobbin from my sewing machine for a temp. replacement. The original screw fit perfectly. Worked great! Hmmm...maybe that would be better? Can't see them behind the drape anyway.
Thanks, Chris

You could check with your dealer. You may also try Camping World. They have a lot of little things like that. You could also look at Beckley's RV in Thurmond, MD. http://www.beckleysrvs.com/ Beckley's had a lot of supplies in their store when we were in PA at the rally. Nice store!

We have a similar problem and as they break they will be replaced with the bobbins. I will use the steel ones in place of the plastic. Ours were installed and the screws were screwed in so tight that they all stripped out so I have had to re mount them with a lighter touch on the drill... Dave
