Coleman grill modifications

Just purchased a Coachmen Apex 215RBK with an outside kitchen. It comes with a Coleman 9924 series grill that works on the disposable 1 pound propane bottles. Would LOVE to be able to fuel it from the dual 20 pound tanks of the RV. My dealer told me it would be a very expensive modification since the grill is designed to work on high pressure propane, and the RV propane system is of low pressure. Anyone know of an affordable way to solve this problem?
Any help is greatly appreciated. My old RVQ grill from my previous Surveyor trailer tied in directly to the RV tanks.

The problem with Coleman grills is that they have proprietary fittings once you remove the regulator. These fittings do not fit the standard available attachments and hoses. Fortunately, several enterprising forum members have posted workarounds that are easily done. I just made this conversion a few weeks ago, and it worked very well.

The Coleman 9924 grill appears to have a regulator attachment that is similar to the Coleman LXE, so the following solution may work for you. See the attached video on Youtube as well as the following link to another thread on this forum:

Total cost is about $36, of which $25 is for the 10 foot quick connect hose.
