Will The etrailer Slide Topper Fabric Replace A Solera Slide Topper Fabric?

Question:

In looking at etrailer part e65QV Replacement Fabric for etrailer Slide-Out Topper - 96 Wide - 4-Layer Vinyl - Black, is this an equivalent replacement part for Lippert Solera V000431864 - STCANVAS-STD-96BK? I see another QA answered that it fits Solera slide toppers, but can you confirm the color/appearance will match adjacent OEM Solera fabric and the applicable part equivalency to the part number LCI provided me? This is replacing ripped fabric on a 2024 Columbus 375BH over the master bedroom slide.

Yes, the Replacement Fabric # e65QV is compatible with a Solera slide-out topper and is the right size to use in place of the 96" Lippert Solera fabric # V000431864 / STCANVAS-STD-96BK. Lippert confirms V000431864 is their 96" black Solera replacement canvas, while the # e65QV is also a 96" black slide-topper fabric.

The one distinction I want to make is that # e65QV is not the actual Lippert OEM equivalent part number. It is our etrailer replacement fabric that is designed to fit the Solera toppers. It uses a heavy 16-oz, 1,000D, 4-layer PVC vinyl with heat-welded seams, so it is a nice upgrade when replacing torn fabric.

As far as appearance, both are solid black, so the # e65QV will blend in well with the adjacent OEM Solera toppers. I cannot promise a perfect color match, though. Your original fabric has been exposed to the sun and weather since 2024, and the material and surface finish are not identical between the etrailer and Lippert fabrics. A brand-new black replacement can look a little darker or have a slightly different sheen next to the existing toppers.

Has the original topper held up well until this tear, or have you noticed cracking or deterioration on the other slides too?
