Thanks Mudshovel!! Yes, it does have a wave down the left-hand side. Anyway of fixing this wave from the outside in?
BTW, thanks for the trim link!!! It was exactly what I was looking for, need trim to go around all the exterior compartment doors.
I'll post more pics in the next few minutes.
Well not to sure about fixing from the outside, you can us some steel roofing screw (ones with gasket) and try to suck some of it in or you can use regular sheet metal screws and apply some butyl to the threads before hand, I'v done that a few times. its a bit tricky to find any of the studs in the wall and there is not many but if the plywood is in somwhat ok shape you may be able to get most of it secured I'm sure your is built like mine, 1" foam in the middle and 1/8" plywood all glued and sandwiched together. What I found on mine is the last layer thats glued to the siding and inside paneling had delaminated. But obviously mine is much worse but oddly on the same side :)
If you haven't I recomend resealing the windows buy removing them and replacing the butyl tape as they are clamped in and have no screws applied into the structure, I was planing on using some black finish screws on the exterior like they use to do on older RV's. I find these windows leak alot and most people just goop the******out of them around the outside and to me that really looks ugly and usally don't fix all the leaking. And worst of all a 30 to 50 foot roll of butyl tape is less than a tube of sealer.
