Bob, the basic price is around 1500-2000, but the 70A model because the counter top is a bit longer (according to the wife a good thing) it will have to be notched for the door support and the cost will be 2000-2500. However we are also having the counter top TV removed and mounted onto a portable base so we can move it where desired. With the TV power and cable hookup on the outside and a hook up available in the galley, we figured why not make it truly portable. They also have to modify the drop down support for the third bed at the end of the counter. A few inches will have to be cut off the side next to the sliding door. We don't see ourselves using it as a bed anyway although it should still work as one. The trade off is well worth it.
Lesley is also making noise that since we will never use the extra cushion for the third bed, the area by the refer where it is stored will make a great slide out pantry...
They are also going to install a roll up screen for the rear doors. With the rear doors open and side door open, we should get great air flow thru the unit. All of this will likely cost 2500-3000.
The ERA 70X requires less modification and costs less. Our screen door will also operate in reverse to the video on their website. Ours will roll out from the counter top side and latch next to the passenger seat. Doing this will make the door entry width within 1/2" of what it is now. Doing it the other way would narrow the opening several inches.
We plan to have ours done before the social in Sept, probably in July.
