Zip Dee Window Awnings
Hey Chuck, good conversation yesterday. I have a Zip Dee window
awning in the same condition. From what I've been told on here the
spring is probably broken. It's $50 from Zip Dee. I'm gonna drill
out some rivets this weekend and find out for sure. I'll let you
know. If you have time, maybe I'll drive the bus to camping world on
Saturday. We can compare notes.
