Afternoon, does any one have any experience of retro fitting a flip up kitchen work top. I have a elldis 2016 Affinty 554. Ive tried my dealer .  He spoke to elldis but they couldnt help.

Any one have any ideas?

Cheers

    I fitted one to my Clubman. You need to get a suitable sized piece of similar colour work top, I got one from my Lunar dealer, and some brackets like this

    You can cut the work surface with a jigsaw and finish the edge with iron on laminate or similar.

    I secured the brackets to the side of a cupboard, using small bolts rather than screws, with a metal plate on the opposite side to give extra support.

    Your situation might call for a different solution of course.

    Do any of the current Elddis models (caravans or motorhomes) have such a table? If they did I can't see a problem in one being obtained. May be a bit left field but Bailey have a comprehensive parts website and you could look on there to see if they have anything that would suit. Colour match could be a bit difficult.

    Elddis do fit them, we have one in our Motorhome, I’m sure the dealer could get something to match if they wanted to
