Thank you Bill, of course I discovered this as I peeped the coach for a trip.
I can’t find any info on the internet about purchasing a seal so I was assuming I’d need to purchase from Newell.
Coach was built in 2004, I have no idea if these seals are original.

jeff,
these seals are made for newell. i contacted the company who makes them and they said it would be cheaper to buy from newell.
easy way to tell if they are original is if there is any paint on them that matches the coach. if none at all, they have been replaced.

Just a thought. I don’t have seals but hearing that they are being affected from the UV rays, has anyone thought of using 303 Aerospace Protectant? I use it on my tires and supposedly the only thing recommending for tires (or rubber) that blocks the UV rays. May be worth a shot, if you could get more life out of your seals.
