    Exterior plastic trim

    Is there a website I can go to and find a breakdown of the exterior of my camper? I have a 2019 Microlite 25FKS, and the plastic trim that fits in the metal trim on the corners of the camper is cracking. I had 1 piece on the back side (drivers side) to shred when we took the camper out recently
