The capping/trim around the inside of all the windows have cracked and need replacing, the side windows and door requires 39mm which i got off ebay in a 10m length. The problem is that the 2 large end windows requires a 55mm capping/trim but i cant find it anywhere on the net. Has anyone else had this problem that could point me in the right direction or advise of a suitable alternative? Many thanks Kelly. X

Are you meaning the white plastic channel that is stapled to the wood then an infil is fitted, if so I have the remains of a roll I bought years ago. I`ll measure it tomorrow if it`s of any use you are welcome to it.

Window Capping 39mm White - 10m Roll - Caravan / Camper - PO639

This is the one I've already ordered. Need about 6m. That would be great if you have some. Thanks Kelly.

Hi KellyIOM
did you manage to source any of the 55mm window capping?
Ive been having the same problem and have arrived at your post while searching, any info on this size capping/trim would be much appreciated thanks

I didn't unfortunately. The two end windows aren't too bad at the moment but will need doing eventually. Think it may have to be custom made! Let me know if you find any. Kelly.

I don't know if you are still looking, I stumbled across this thread when looking for it myself, but I have found it on a German site https://www.kampeermarkt.com/cart.php?mode=checkout
If you have any pointers please share with me, I'm trying to breath some new life into a 1970 Sprite alpine.
