    Getting cold air in the bunk at my feet. Specific to that location tried several temp remedies hat doesnt seem to address the issue.

    Corrected a gap in the lower corner of the sleeper door oposit the hinge. Door seems bent or not shaped correctly and is not fully making good seal. Seal by the way looks undamaged. Weather stripping solved that I believe. Still am getting cold air from the corner down to the bunk "rest" , have plenty weather stripping left for that area but dont want to waste if it would be ineffective.

    Any ideas of where else to look at or what to maybe look for?

    Is bunk sealed off from side box area under the bunk?? Check side box doors and if you have those cab vents at the back of the cab. I taped mine shut with gorilla tape.

    Bunk is plastic on plastic. so no real seal per se. And it does seem localized to there.

    Side vent seals seem good. No air there that I can feel.

    Wonder if any wiring comes up into the passenger side box that isnt sealed?

    Monday load takes me from terre haute to Minneapolis area. With my plan to be shut down up there monday night.

    The vents that I'm referring to are on the back wall of the cab, in the space under the bunk. They help with the ventilation of the cab. They would be seen on the back of the cab outside. They look like small plastic louvers. They have rubber flappers inside that don't seal all that well. Really noticeable in winter.
