The Palm Beach has these tracks on both sides of all windows except the back and the door. They do not have anything in them at this time. Does anyone know what they held stock? Are they even stock? A photo would be great.

Those tracks hold little ball ended plastic tabs that are sewn into window
coverings. They keep them close to the curved side walls. We bought
replacements at camping world.

I believe they held some sort of valances for the window shades.
