Replacing the Sink in my Rockwood HW296

[Cowboy6201]

My Wife and I ordered a new Sink to replace the plastic sink in our 2018 Rockwood HW296.
We odered the sink from Amazon.
Class A Customs | 25" X 17" X 5" Stainless Steel Double Bowl Sink | 300 Series Stainless Steel | RV Camper Motor Home Sink | Concession Sink https://a.co/d/83w6Q28

We also replaced the Faucet and put in one that we no longer have to take off the Faucet and lay it in the sink, and close it up with no issues.

Our new Sink will arrive the 26th thru the 28th were going to upload a video on YouTube showing the install and how easy it is, just look for @Cowboy60Cwgirl62 channel to see the install.

Oo yes I will definitely be looking at that video. What faucet have you switched to, that you can close the top without disconnecting? Thanks for sharing!

Also, how will the new faucet align with the 3 holes in your new sink? I'd love to do this mod but I'm curious how the 3 hole alignment will work.

The old sink already has 3 holes already, the old faucet has hot and cold connection, as well as in between the hot and cold is a round hump.
The new sink has to have the 3 holes.
I'll post a Pic tommorow of the old faucet so you can see what I'm discribing. Attachment 290675

The thought of not having to take out and put in the faucet at tear down/set up sounds wonderful. I may have to look into this. I am always afraid the white plastic threads I am inserting the faucet into are going to crack/break off.

Yes, silly me of course it will fit. For some reason I was thinking that there was only one hole but you are right, there is 3. I like the idea of having one less step on set up/take down with the faucet you chose.

I had to replace my faucet after my first trip in my HW27ks. I foolishly lit the water heater without clearing the air lock in the tank. When I turned the hot tap on, the pressure blew the neck of the tap off and messed up the fittings, also messed up my underwear!!!
I replaced it with the same kind, that you have to take apart to pop down, but one with swing handles not twist (I seem to be dumping lots of water behind the faucet when turning the twist type off)
I'd love to see your finished project. Here's the faucet I went with -
