The time has come that my grandchildren need to travel with us in our westy, so the seat-install project I've been putting off for years is staring me in the face. It seems that most references I have seen to this have been for installing a double seat into a non-westy, a project which doesn't involve removing any cabinets. I have the seat and the rail parts (somehow lost the fasteners and hardware, anybody have that?) but just need some guidance so this doesn't become a prolonged trial-and-error deal (had enough of that with my 2.1 engine rebuild!) Can I just get by with removing the fridge cabinet, or does the whole floor--and the seat and other cabinet--need to come out, too? I am hoping to tack down some guide boards and use a router to remove wood. It would be nice if someone would tell me how wide the factory cut those removals from the floor. Thanks in advance, Jim |
