Regarding weep hole covers, have you recently checked Steele Rubber Producs offerings? I don't need any covers yet, it may be listed under

The weep hole covers I'm interested in too. I know I am missing at least 3 of them and a couple of spares would be nice.

I know this thread is a bit old, but you can upload a .stl file to
https://craftcloud3d.com/ and they will provide instant quotes with lead times on a variety of printing methods.
I almost got a 3D printer until I found this site. I have used them on many projects using many different processes. All but one have been very good, and that one looked like it was from a home 3d printer because it was the only one I did in PLA.
For the questions above, some of the rubberized or flexible materials would likely work best.

It's only a matter of time before we get Richard the piece he needs for his docking lights.

How would one remove those weep hole covers? Don’t really want to break one getting it out.

I just stumbled across this thread, I have a 3d printer and can recreate those weep hole covers, my only concern is the material I use really doesn't like heat or UV rays but its worth a try.

Jack,
I'd be willing to be a test bed for the life, longevity, and caring for a test run of these weep hole covers. What's the worst that could happen?
Right now I have 3 missing covers and would gladly pay a reasonable price for your efforts.
I'm not familiar with 3D printing media. I haven't researched any of this.

My son in law works for a company called SendCutSend. You send the specs, they print it and send it back. Pretty cool stuff.
Also, a ton of products have already been designed and uploaded to
https://www.thingiverse.com/ and you’d be surprised what on there for RVs!

Someone on Newellgurus mentioned they had the 3d /stl files for the electric meter bezels/surrounds. I forgot who... I could really use that file since I am missing one!
Be seeing you,
