Hi All.
When we bought our Motorhome, we really liked the floor-plan, but hated some of the Colors and some of the Furniture. So right off the bat, we did an "Inside Make-Over".
There were two matching Love-Seats, that faced each other. It also amde into a bed. It was God Awful to even sit on, let alone to even try to sleep on it. It went to the dumps, along with all of the "Window Treatments" as well, also so did all of the OEM Flooring.
We did everything that we wanted to do to our Motorhome. All of the "Up-Grades" and "Improvements" and "Mods" are done now also.
We put in Two, Over-Stuffed, Swivel-Backed Rocking Chairs. These Chairs are pure top quaility. Its nice to be able to swing around the Rockiing Chairs to any position that we want them to be at.
We also added two New LED TV's, both are on "Articulating Arms". So the view from either TV is never an issues. Since we can easily adjustt the angle and the tilt of the TV's, to suit us, no matter where we sit to watch the TV's.
No more kinks in the neck, or distorted views from watching the TV's at an angle.
Now our Motorhome is exactely the way we wanted it to look inside. Almost looks like a Brand New Motorhome inside.
Since our RV's have always been our second homes on wheels, we have fixed them all up to suit our needs. They are even more Enjoyable and even more Comfortable now, than when they were new.
Its your RV's, so do anything you wish to them to make them your own, and to enjoy them to the most.
Good Luck. Happy Travels. Dan & Jill

To the people who replace the original sofa do you tie down the new sofa or loveseat?

We took that awful sleeper sofa out of our 5ver and put in a loveseat hide-a-bed and a recliner in its place. More room and a lot more comfy!

I took the sofa/sleeper out of our 5ver and installed 2 La-z-boy recliners. Our camper is on the small side so we have to turn the recliners to face one another before bringing the sliders in. The backs come off the recliners which makes for easy entry into the camper. We love these and wished we would have done this years ago. Those sofa/sleepers are just plain uncomfortable.

We removed our loveseat/hidabed from our slide-out. We have a solid floor and lining under it. Our bolt holes are covered by that lining. The bolts on each side held the sofa down, the six silver bolts across the back held seat belts. The black angle iron is structural, I am not sure of the two bolts against the wall but I added a hook from Ace Hardware to attach a bungee while in motion. We have them bungied incase of accident. We removed the bolts and filled the holes with silicone. We have placed a 4 x 6 rug in the area.

This is the sofa before removal.

Space holds two recliners. We ordered these. Swivel, glider & recliner.

Did you have any issues with weight? I'm looking at doing the same thing in our coach but I'm concerned that the new loveseat or recliners would increase my weight more than I want to. Some days I wish I had a diesel.....
