Remodeling the utility bay wall

Quote from: Barry Beam –
We had ours replaced and it was behind the panel in the utility bay.  :-( Very tough to work in there.
I finally cut that panel in half so I could get inside without having to disassemble everything in the future.

Barry - are there photos anywhere?  Steve's going to replace our check valve when we get back to Nac and wants to alter that panel as well (for access to valves, tank sensors, etc.).

I'm also anxiously awaiting Steve and Kathy B's utility bay "remodel" photos.  I think their coach should be done pretty soon....  right?

It is raining outside but here is a quick photo. I would like to change the panel to stainless steel. 8)

Thanks - it looks like you split the upper panel horizontally.  Do you then just have to remove the top piece to gain adequate access behind (leaving the panel with the switches intact)?

ETA - and (not having our coach here for reference) am I seeing that you deleted the soap dispenser?

On my year, you had to remove the trip and the silicone they put on it as well as the soap dispenser.

I HOPE so!  So far the customer service has been lacking from Classic Coach Works as to the status of my wet bay mod & other mods I wanted.  I had the luck of getting the owners son, Alan Williams, as my sales rep and he's just a young kid who doesn't have a clue about how people feel about their $100K+ toys.  I dropped my coach off there on 1-17 and it went into the shop just 2 weeks ago and I haven't heard a word back from him yet.  Getting a little PO'd about the lack of communication from them.  I will let everyone know how it all turns out... on this board and about 100 other places.  I make my living off the net - do NOT make me me mad! hehehe
