08 Bounder Dog House Removal

Has anyone removed the whole dog house on your Bounder motorhome, I lifted up the carpet in front and found 2 small screws but how many more is there on the side and any where else I might need to look, my old Flair was real easy just 2 latch's and it open up but the Bounder seems to be far more difficult.

    I would hope gluing wouldn't have been the case by Fleetwood. When I removed the lid on my doghouse the seal was very tight, as it should be. Took two flat head screw drivers and applied force on opposite sides of the lid, using the frame to push straight up. Or use something like a hook and put in the screw holes and pull straight up. Good luck


    I am not talking about the access panel on top of doghouse but the whole doghouse, I have came to the conclusion that this doghouse was not meant to be removed easy, got what I needed done without removing it, sure hope when it's time to replace spark plugs they can be done without doghouse removal.

  • UPDATE : I have removed all the screws all the way around doghouse but it appears to be glued to the floor, what a pain in my a$$, why did Fleetwood do this..

    Anyone been thru this and what else do I need to do.
