Vinyl Window Bead

Just had a new roof installed on my mobile home. Apparently, the Amish roofers slide the old shingles down the vinyl siding and windows instead of tossing them clear of the mobile home. I've cleaned the tar from the siding. Now I'm looking to replace the damaged vinyl window beads. Can you identify the replacement bead by the photos or do I have to remove the bead for identification?

Hey there!

Thanks for reaching out to us. We'd be happy to help with this but I'm afraid we can't make an ID from these photos. Can you remove an undamaged sample? We'd like to see a photo of the end profile specifically.

The 55-185 looks to be the part you're searching for. Take a look at the specifications and see if you agree.

THANK YOU Emily!
55-185 6' Snap-in Glazing Bead has been ordered. My windows will be back to normal in a few weeks.
Thanks again for all the help. Last thing I wanted was to order a bunch of these and find out they dont match or worse ... don't fit.
