Does anyone know the make of the corner showers used in the 2017 Sonic Lites? One of our upper butterfly rollers (23mm) broke due to a porosity in the pot metal casting. A part number would help. This information should be available on the Venture website, that's a BIG hint. Attachments:

Sent Venture a message Friday to find out who makes the shower doors and maybe a part number for the top butterfly roller. Still no response. Called "Customer Service" yesterday because I want to get a roller before the next trip. Went through the usual number phone menu drill down to get to the Sonic person (One plus was there was no wait). Gave him the last 8 of the VIN number. He could not, or would not, give me the maker of the shower door or a part number. He did some digging, I guess, and came back with an $80 cost. I asked if that was for a set or one roller (you can get a whole set of 8 rollers for <$16 on Amazon). I told him that was out of line, so he passed me to another department with no answer. I left a voicemail (typical name, phone number, reason) and have yet to hear from them. I found a new set (8 rollers) that should work with a little mod if needed, on Ebay, for <$10 and free shipping. I'll post the name and part number, if they work.
Note: Venture did leave a call back voicemail, but I had it fixed by then. Never received a reply from the website inquiry.

These work for less than $10 for a whole set. These are 25mm rollers vs 23mm on the original, but the track is big enough to use them. I now have 7 spare rollers. You may need to adjust the roller for the doors to meet even.

To disassemble, pop the tiny cover off. The C clip fits loosely over the screw end, remove it. Unscrew the adjusting screw from the roller.  |
