Upgraded our 2015 Winnebaago Sprinter

It looks like a tight fit. But, you did a nice job.
I see a wire, is it heated?

Just looked at the 24V floorplan. You still have twin beds, and that new seating's gotta be a TV watcher's paradise. Nice job! How's the Crosstrek toad treating you?

Thanks,

It isn't as tight as you think. The chairs are quite wide so very comfortable. Chairs are over 22" wide, but yes the chairs just fit the space as there is only 57" width there. It took me a long time to find some chairs that would fit the space.

The wire you see is from the outlet that is behind the chairs. The outlet is wired for 120V shore power and also from the onboard inverter. I ran and short heavy extension so I would still have the use of the outlet. What you see plugged in is my battery tender for the chassis battery.

That was one of the reasons that I changed out the sofa as we didn't need the extra bed as this is a rig for 2 and yes it is great for watching TV as it is across the other side of the rig so it is straight across from the recliners.

The Crosstrek is great. I don't put that many miles on it but it runs great. Being retired we take the Grand Cherokee for most run around business. Then we also have a Miata for goofing around locally with the club we belong to plus the Harley so between all the rigs nothing gets much mileage. :D

Great looking modification! Our Phoenix Cruiser came with dual seats in lieu of a couch. They are fully articulated electrically and have a pull out extension which makes them become a bed. For the two of us, I like your arrangement a wee bit better. Ours, however, are a great improvement from the more conventional power sofa that turns into a bed. I have slept on this and it is fine and actually pretty comfortable, but really like you we don't need a bed there. I guess you Arkies and us Okies just like comfort :).

Great job on the install.

We are thinking of doing the same upgrade. Is this fronm the Thomas Payne collection sold by camping world? It sure looks nice.

You are correct, they are the ones from CW. They were the only ones that I found that would fit the space that I had. They are very comfortable and so much better than the sofa they replaced.

I had looked at the PC MH and was considering trading for one because of the more comfortable seating but then I found these seats and it sure was a lot cheaper to do this conversion than buying a new coach. That was the only complaint that we had was no place to really get comfortable that was the only drawback of our coach that we had. If I had switched rigs I was going to have the 4X4 conversion done on it. You are right we like our comforts, if I'm going I want to be comfortable.

We went to Alaska in 2013 in our pickup camper and spent every night in it for over 2 months with our 40# dog. After that trip of over 11,000 miles we decided we needed more comfort for our old bones but wanted to stay in shorter rig still. We found out after a few trips that the sofa just was not that great so I have been on the lookout for something to replace it with and then I finally saw these and they were the right size so put them in so now we are happy campers. They were a tight fit but it worked out.

Those look great! Looks comfy! Like how it just kicks back but is there any lean back trouble or large space needed? I'd LOVE to do this in my bounder.

Looks great, but what size was your sofa and did this replacement leave any exposed areas from the old sofa?
