Dometic AE replacement awning help

Hi everyone. Hoping the collective here can help me order a suitable replacement awning for my Travel Trailer. Ok, I have a 2002 Fleetwood Terry that has a Dometic AE manual awning on it. Anyway a couple weekend ago, we got a nasty storm that damage the vinyl, and the long roller tube. I do have insurance, but with a $1000 ded. looks like I can buy an entire new awning for less than my deductible.

Anyway, I have been in contact with Dometic and a few online sellers, who are NO help at all really. First they told me to measure from center of arm bracket to center of Arm bracket to determine the size of replacement I need......SO...I did that. EXACT measurement center to center is 17'-11 1/8" (so just under 18 foot) the fabric width on the roller is 17 foot, or just a hair under.

Anyway, I don't know if I need to order a 17 foot awning, or an 18 foot awning..as I want to use the same mounting locations as the old awning..so want to be sure I get the correct awning that will match up with the old mounts.

Any help from you guys would be awesome. I have tried to locate the make, model number on the old awning, but haven't found anything yet.

Thanks for listening.

You have an 18' awning. There should be stickers on the roller tube, hardware (vertical support arms), and the fabric which all will have the model number of the current awning ... provide that info to any A&E Dometic retailer and they can get you the correct replacement, be it an entire awning or just parts thereof.
