Hi, 
The black edging/trim, which keeps the water out, is cracked and damaged in a couple of places. It doesn't appear to be letting in water yet, but I think I'd like to replace it.
This goes on the bottom of the roof that is raised.

Any ideas where I can get a replacement? 

Thanks,
Graham

I'm not familiar with the pop-top Montana, but if it has an oval rubber seal which clips onto the downward-facing edge of the roof, then I would expect that Woolies or Seals Direct would have something suitable. If you can find something that looks to be the right profile from their catalogue, Woolies will often post you a sample piece so that you can check if it's exactly right (or good enough).

Cheers.

I can't advise on the motorhome issue but sheer curiosity has me wondering...

Going by your username, are you originally from Wimbledon too? wave

Did you ever get your roof seal replaced?  I did mine 3 years ago  It is not a standard seal  Find a Reimo dealer and get a cross section image of the seal to send them.

Thanks, I did.
Woollies sent me a sample that was close enough and it does the job perfectly!
