    But they are high priced. Headlights for my 05 Fleetwood that are $90 on EBay are $450 from Fleetwood.

    A chrome exhaust tip was $275.


    They have to keep the prices high to recover the cost of the warranty repairs because they refuse to train the help right and take the the sloppy workmanship as quality.

    Can't complain on the workmanship of my pre-recession American built coach, but will have to say that FW is nothing short of being ridiculous with their parts prices. Certainly nothing like Spartan chassis, who caters to their customers and will usually beat all aftermarket products, including those found on Amazon and eBay.
    Other than that, the Rev Group does offer great tech. support and will send you most info at no charge.


    The What-You-See part if fine. It's the hidden stuff that gripes me.

    I have had a 50-50 success with FW support. I'm still waiting for a return phone call from them after 8 months, guess they can't find the information. And several months ago I asked for a schematic from them, guess the internet is real slow.

    The plus factor is I didn't buy a Thor from Camping World!

  • Jerry, are you missing the engine cover, or is it just damaged? If damaged, try taking it, or the pieces to an auto body shop, or boat shop to see if they will, or can repair it. It will be quite a bit less than a new one. The engine covers on Fleetwood MHs are glued down with urethane sealer and usually get damaged when removed.
