Ok, I have a MFG Gypsy 15. I got a cover for it at Wal-Mart. Now, the problem with generic covers is.. wel,, they are generic. And of course the generic cover that is suppose to fit is never in stock so you are forced to get something smaller or bigger. I chose the latter. When I got it on, and tied down fairly tight, I could see that the sharp corners of the windows were soon to cut through the cover.
My solution, and I hope this helps some one on here as I am in debt to the forums, was to head to the hardware store and get 1 section of hot water pipe insulation. It's a tubular piece of foam with a lengthwise slit that is made to be use on hot water pipes already in place. I just made a couple of cuts so as to fit over the side windows while in place. I will try to get a pic into this thread in a day or too to make things clear.
Total cost: <$5.00
