Our 2008 KSDP only came with a single grab-rail inside the entry stairwell. I've seen that newer Newmars have a second one mounted diagonally under the dashboard. I want one like that.
I asked the Newmar service place where I was yesterday if he could do it and he just said NO. But I'm sure there's a way. I figure that either some plywood backing needs to be added to the inside of the dashboard to stiffen it, or angle-iron bracing needs to be added behind the dashboard.
My immediate problem is that I can't figure out how to get back inside there. There are no visible screws. So I'm wondering if Newmar used automotive type snap fittings (such as found on car interiors).
If anybody has suggestions regarding the grab rail or how to get into the dashboard area there, please let me know.
Here are a couple of photos of our stairwell. I've marked in green where I want to bolt the diagonal grab-rail.
