Lost the amber lens on one of the 5 marker lights across the top front of my Journey. Anybody had to replace one of those? Is it something to be found at the local auto parts store or do I have to go to a Winnie dealer and pay twice as much?

Tom - I have a bad front marker and it is a twist on assembly with lens and bulb - the bulb apparently isn't replaceable. Mine looks like an amber hockey puck.

I saw several sizes of these at a truck stop - next time you're at one look in the accessory section.

Tom,
It sounds like the lights on my 05 Meridian are like yours. The red/amber cover snaps over the white plastic housing with the bulb. It sounds like John Canfield might have something different. Anyway, I'm waiting to see if anyone has an answer to your question, as I am also missing a marker lens.

John_C - My lights are as John Mc describes. Thanks for the tip though - our lights are probably even more common on trucks than yours.

John Mc - will post here when I find them. The lens on the side look the same, but have a different Winnie part number. Guess I'll have to take off one of the front lens to compare to.

You can spend your time going to several auto parts stores trying to find a lens or just stop by a dealer and pick up one. They are not expensive and most dealers have lenses in bins in their retail area. No need to see the parts man.

Good point Flyer....same thing with the compartment keys....I had forgotten the dealer has a WHOLE panel of the different number keys....cheaper than a locksmith.

Thanks Navy Flyer! I did hit an auto parts store and a truck stop today with no luck. Will be in Ft. Myers tomorrow where there is a Winnie dealer.

Tried a Winnie dealer this morning - they were out of stock... Camping World had tons of them at 2.69 a pop. I now have a spare amber and a spare red, so I should never lose one again.
