Backsplash part number please

Who can I speak with to see about ordering a backsplash section as seen in the attached photo from the current brochure on Sunseeker Classic model 2440DS.
Obviously I’ll be instructed to order through my dealer, but I’ll need the proper part number to match the colouring, and I’d like a price to compare against replacing the entire area with another source, like Home Depot or such.

Forest River continues to install a backsplash panel at the back of the stove ONLY and not the side wall of the stove. I’d like to complete the backsplash idea.

There may be a reason why they only install the tile on the wall side only. My RV has it on both sides and I have an issue which may be related to that. I will try and post some pics this weekend when the RV is home.

We have a 2440DS. Last fall I ordered a second backsplash exactly like pictured in post #1. The reason I got a second one was because Forest River mounts the backsplash behind the range. That makes no sense because the folding range top cover protects the back wall. Where protection is needed is to the side, where the wall is right next to the burners. So, I added an identical backsplash on the right side, as seen in my photo below.

And that stupid big safety sticker they put on the backsplash has to come off right away.

I am camping now but this weekend I can find the paperwork and part number from the order. This backsplash is made of glass, much to my surprise. It is one piece, 24"W x 14"H, with four predrilled holes. It was about $70 (US), I think. That was a little pricey but it looks nice, fits perfectly, and installs easily with 4 screws. I have had no problems related to the second backsplash.

Absolutely correct.....never thought of it until I mentioned this post to my wife. She said I would be exactly what’s needed, so please post the information on the part number when you can. Thanks!

Our new to us 2018 Sunseeker 2430S even uses the same colour pattern backsplash as seen in my photos here.....
I’ll look forward to your info from your paperwork.
Did you have to order from a dealer instead of direct from Forest River? That’s usually the case.

Someone private messaged me about a backsplash they have

A message came to me when I saw my PRIVATE MESSAGE indicator was highlighted, but it was not the familiar private message I normally get.

Another member in North Carolina was advising me that he has a spare backsplash.

I can’t locate his message anymore.....I don’t know where to look.

Can someone help that knows what I mean?

I went through the selling dealer for the part order. According to the dealer, that is the only way I can get parts from Forest River. I have ordered a lot of things I have used for modifications and they have come through every time. I've ordered cabinet doors, extra corner shelves, 24" wide seam tape that matches the woodwork and walls, extra counter extension to make the dinette table larger, etc.

These are peel and stick tile sheets. Amazon has a very large selection. If you can't find the match, a heat gun would soften the glue to remove the existing tiles. On our Sunseeker 2500 TS, we wanted to add to the factory aluminum back splash. Low and behold, Amazon had the exact tile sheets. We did the whole counter area. I used an angle grinder to form around the window molding curves.

I looked at my receipt for the backsplash glass. It shows the description, but no part number. Price paid was US$79.63. So, I suggest using the part number that karykatz posted, if you are still interested.

Yeah, well......

By the time that US$79.63 makes it to Canada, through customs and duties.....my DW found something completely different as far as a backsplash option for me to install.

I’ll post pictures in the weeks to come.

Here’s what it looked like stock, and in prep....

Thanks to all.
