I have one window in my Motorhome that is misting between the skins of the double glazed unit.
There are two holes with bungs in them. I know that I can use a hair dryer to dry out the moisture between the skins but have had no luck in finding replacement bungs.
My Motorhome is a Hymer and even the local agent (Brownhills) or the nearby Discover Site are unable to help.
The nearest I have come is a small caravan dealer suggesting squeezing out silicon from the tube and letting it set then use a Stanley knife to cut small pieces to fill the holes.
All of the bungs look fragile so I would like to replace all of the bungs.
Does anyone know where I can obtain the proper bungs.
Update:
I received a reply to contact Dometic who now own Seitz on another forum.

Hello John,
sorry all part for Birkholz windows are no longer available, only place you would get spares would be from caravan breakers I am afraid.

So it would appear that Hymer Motorhomes fitted with Birkholz windows are going to have to look for breakers if they develop faults or get a broken window.
Anyone know of a specialist Hymer Breaker in the UK?
