I didn't have any luck finding any premade/sold in stores, 'solar corner cushions', either. Sorry! ...Anyone else have success? Seems to me, there should be something out there similar to the cover for our AC unit, with soft material underneath and vinyl or plastic on top with a draw string to hold it in place. (We don't need the solar panel to charge batteries while under the trailer cover since we can plug in periodically, if needed.)

Initially, I didn't have any luck with pool noodles or towels (kept coming off) so I made my own corner protectors out of Reflectix and sticky velcro tabs. Here's a pic from another thread https://www.escapeforum.org/forums/f...tml#post397253 Good luck with your quest. -Bea

Next time I get to IKEA I will go to the childrens section to look for those plastic bumpers one would put on table corners to protect little childrens heads from being hurt.
I think that will work on those corners.
Just an idea from a grandfather of sevenTake care everybody.

Duct tape and pipe insulation worked well . In the barn now so just gets a little dusty with no cover.

You could go to a boat canvas shop and have one made out of sunbrella . I had one made for my truck mounted panels.
