awning slider assembly

Hello all!
My recently purchased wilderness fleetwood awning has two slider assemblies that somehow broke when I was folding awning back in on our first trip out.
Both of them broke. I tried to look up some paperwork on my awning and all I could find was

8271004 & 8272004 Series Nested Hardware, Sunchaser by dometic installation manual.
Didn't have specific parts list with it but my question is, are all the slider assemblies with the rivet virtually the same?
Just trying to avoid a double order.

I found this. Can anyone confirm if that is kind of the standard? Can't really find any other part number out there so I assume so.
DOMETIC A&E Repl Awning Slider Assembly w/Rivet 2-PACK - 8000 8500 9000 - 830463P

Thanks,
  • We had an issue with the Dometic awning on our HTT - owner stupidity - and DH called the customer service dept and they were very helpful. He got exactly what he needed. You may be ahead to call them directly with your model # or other info in hand.

    I stopped by a local dealer and they were salvaging a camper so I bought both sliders with the attached extension arms for $10.


    The Glamping World near us had them in stock. Bought 2, one to replace, the other as a spare.
