Default Exterior Lamp Lense

On our 2805C there is a light fixture mounted outside over the big front window. It has a yellow lense cover. The fixture is about 3" X 5". I am having trouble keeping a bulbs working in that fixture. I climbed up there and find that the lense has apparentlly gotten too hot and has deformed so water can get in there. The interior of the fixture looks O. K.? But I need a replacement lense.
I have the same fixture next to the door of the camper.
Anybody know where I could get a replacement lense?
Thanks in advance.
God Bless
Papa

See if any of these look close to what you have now.

Papa,

Any decent RV parts store would carry the replacement lens. I switched my two outside lights (by the door & above the front window) to l.e.d. bulbs. The lens do not melt now. I might have an extra lens at home. If so, I'll bring it to the rally for you.

The bulb wattage may be to large, and the extra heat is melting the plastic.
