Could anybody with a folding camper (mine is a conway cruiser 2006 )please look in their front locker and see if there is a plastic flap at the top which would allow rain to run out,because mine looks like it's missing and water is pouring into locker and inside camper.We are trying to claim on insurance and would appreciate any photos to show this plastic flap.thanks

Can't think of any 'flap' in the storage box of our Crusader. Do you have a photo of where you think this flap should be and I'll go and look at mine. It's a 2001 so may well be different type of design to yours.

The rubber gasket surround should provide your water seal. The reinforcing plate glued to the inside of the flap is purely for strength ... ours gas been re-glued a couple of times ... but we've never had a leak into the locker.

Really sorry ... but we store our FC in France, so I can't get at it to take a pic.
Maybe someone else can do it?
Good luck.
