Cracked Skylight 2018 Minnie Winnie 31G

Ok so the skylight above my shower is cracked and with heavy rain it leaks. I called a Winnebago dealer near me, and the replacement is close to $600!!
I checked at Icon Direct and the one they have may be to large to fit where the existing one is. Does anyone have suggestions of where I can find a replacement skylight?

I got a replacement for my 2000 Brave from IconDirect in 2021. You'll probably have to buy one that is slightly larger than the one you have as there are no direct replacements from aftermarket suppliers. I paid $139 plus shipping, but it looks like it's $167 plus shipping now. The Dome Dimension are 33 1/2" x 17 1/2" and the Flange Dimension are 37 1/2" x 21 1/2" x 4" which was slightly larger that the roof opening. I had it installed when I had the roof recoated. No problem with leaks since the installation.

I had a crack last summer and had the same issue ( second skylight crack in 20 years). I decided to use EZ skylights (https://www.eztopsworldwide.com/). They use lexan instead of acrilic. It was abi half the cost of the one from Winnebago.

Skylight

Contact Winnebago customer service ask for the manager if necessary. They have had a lot of skylight crack issues since they went to a outside vendor. WE had ours replaced free within the 1 year warranty. Good luck

Thanks for ALL the suggestions. I have been in contact with EZ Skylights and have one on the way for ALOT cheaper than Winnebago.

Thanks, TimeshareRV

When mine finally gives up the ghost, I'm just going to install a lexan sheet (with proper marine caulk which is NOT applied with a firehose), and repurpose the interior trim. Why would anyone put a large hole in a perfectly good roof in the first place?

Just had mine replaced on the road to the tune of $800. Hopefully WBGO will reimburse. All 4 corners were cracked during installation due to over torquing the fasteners. Tried more caulk, but still a leak. My guy says it's a bit of an epidemic for new covid era builds of all brands and that he has only solved the issue with replacement, including his rig.
Know this is about older rigs, but wanted to share...
Safe travels!
