Vinyl Insert Molding

I need to buy new vinyl insert molding to go around the baggage doors on my TT. As you can see it has discolored and shrunk.



There seems to be two types of this stuff. The common type used at the corners is stiff and shiny. What I need for these doors is much softer and more pliable so it will go around corners. So far I have not been able to find it anywhere and have ordered the wrong stuff online more than once.

It would help if I knew what the different types were called. I used to be able to find it everywhere but it seems to have disappeared.

Any suggestions?

Yes. As soon as it cools down it pops out of the corners.


Don't know about that. It always worked for me. Obviously, it only works sometimes.
