Have a new to me 2021 T@G XL.  The stargazer window trim (that also serves as the dispenser for the shade/bug screen) has come loose from the camper front wall in one corner.   What is the proper way to repair this?

    I have this same issue.  How do you take apart the frame to get the head of the screws?

    That corner just slides off with a little gentle prying at the bottom right corner

    Wondering if a dowel (or even a wooden golf tee) held with epoxy.  Then drill a small pilot hole, and use the same screw?  
    Or use Rivet-Nuts (I have used these to fix problems in a Popup camper previously)?  I don't know what is behind the skin you can see...I assume it is an aluminum strip that once secured the original screw?
