Oops

Just got back from a nice cheap weekend...

Went tubing down a river, torrential downpour!!! Got back to the trailer and voila BROKEN arm on the awning. Now this is a 2007 27FBSE, I had lowered the awning two notches but I guess that wasn't enough! Funny thing is the arm I DIDN'T lower is the one that broke, or should I say SNAPPED.

Anyway it seems like a clean break so I'm trying to decide if I should take it down to the dealer and have them fix it or if it's something I could handle.

I've attached the parts image from ZipDee, it's part number 2. It's warped big time with a clean break. No other hardware damage that I can see.

Looks simple enough but hey...Now I doubt it's covered under warranty but I have to ask because I also have an extended warraty too.

My problem is I'm up here in Canada and parts for some reason always cost a LOT more.

Suggestions?
