Avenger - Sink Cover

We recently took delivery of a 2013 Avenger 26BH - does anyone know if a sink cover is available (aftermarket or OEM) that will fit?

Thanks.

I have been looking for one also that fit the curve of the sink. Currently we use just a standard cutting board that fit the dimensions but has nothing that keeps it from siding when you are in tow. Question for you. Did your TT come with the toilet paper holder mounted and if so where. Mine didn't come with it and I have been struggling to find one to mount and a lactation to mount it.

For a TP holder we use a stand (from Target or Walmart) so we can position it in the best location.. The downside is we will need to secure it while traveling.

Yes I have thought of going that route also. Worried about drilling holes on interior walls.

If you are still looking for a sink cover I bought this off of eBay. Fits perfect!

Thanks for the info. We haven't figured out yet where we're going to put the TP holder though it is high on my wife's priority list.

Did yours come with a 3 hook towel holder in the bathroom and a curtain for the bunk beds? The pictures on PTM website shows these but my TT didn't come with them. It also didn't have the outside TV mount that is shown and mentioned in the brochure but I made the dealer add it before I bought it.

That's good to hear. I had seen that cover here but wasn't sure if it would fit, but the site did say they were an OEM provider for FR. I called PTM and was told there was no cover that fit and they didn't know the OEM provider b/c they buy through a third party.

Does it move at all when in place? You don't happen to have a picture do you?

Thanks for sharing.

Yes we got the three towel holder over the toilet and the bunk curtain. Our dealer did mention the outside tv mount and was going to throw it in at no cost. Since they weren't doing the install I declined. There was no way the DW was going to let me drill into her TT.

Sounds like I'll be calling PTM tomorrow to find out why mine doesn't have either of those. The dealer did install the mount for me but I had to convince them. I watched the guy do it and was not real impressd with how they work. I'll be doing most of the maintenance and mods to my TT going forward.

Did you guys get the 2 full bunk beds or the full bottom and twin top bunk? Because I have 2 full bunks and would love to have a curtain over the area. I also did not receive the 3 towel hook! I have been looking around for something to replace that area!

I have one full bunk on the bottom and the twin up top. Wish I had the two full bunks. My DD have rolled out of the top bunk twice now. I will be installing a bunk rail before our next trip.

Same here. Twin up top and have to build a rail.

For the missing towel holder, we hung 3 command hooks over the toilet but I'd still like the original holder.

I actually just finished up making a stove top cover from a cutting board. Just took the stove top grate off and hollowed out the back side of the board about 1/4 of an inch to fit over the great. Looks good and is sold for storing food or using as a cutting board.

Very nice. I would like to do something like that. I have looked at purchasing a cutting board for the stove and they are very pround of those things.

I didn't notice there was an outside TV mount shown on the PT website, but I did notice the towel holder (ours did not come with one). I mentioned it to the dealer and he just said that PT sometimes make little changes, possibly cost cutting. He didn't know one was supposed to be there. I wish it had one, but I didn't press the issue. An outside TV mount would've been nice to have as well.

Re the tp holder...as I mentioned on another thread the other day (and it seems this goes for all FR models) I was told they don't install them any more as there have been many complaints that the kids break them off the wall. I found the hardware for ours in the left side medicine cabinet. I can see that happening, as the toilet area is tight, and let's face it, the walls are thin.

I did the same thing someone mentioned above...bought the free stander. There's a nice very low shelf behind our toilet so during travel I'll place it there...(stand has rubber on the bottom so I doubt it'll slide around.)

Did the same thing with paper towel holder. WHY do they install such POS cheap paper towel holders in these top qualify TTs? Reach for a paper towel and the roll falls out. Took it down and am using a free stander...again it has rubber on the bottom, but I'll place it under the sink during travel.

Ours came with a cheap plastic silverware tray. At first I threw it out, then decided it's perfect for storing extra spice/seasoning bottles. Lay the bottles down in it.

WalMart has a bamboo silverware tray that is nice and narrow...perfect fit in the kitchen drawer.
