Hey Clayton, thanks for reaching out!
Just so we're on the same page, it sounds like you're looking for replacement slide-out awnings as well as the standard awning that hangs out over the entry door.
I'll definitely be able to help you figure out what replacement awnings you need, but I'll need you to take some measurements first, as I don't have a listing of what came on your 2003 Cardinal Platinum.
For a standard awning I'll need to know the width between the centers of the awning arms (see example for 16' Awning # LC405492), and for slide-out awnings I'll need to know the width of the outer edges of the trim for the slide-out.
I've attached some photos to help show where exactly I'll need you to measure. Let me know what you find and I'll be more than happy to help you get your 5th wheel back up and running!
