Anybody replace their plastic sink with a lightweight stainless steel? Ours measures 15x13x7 inches deep. Seems a bar sink would be the right replacement.

I replaced ours in the r-pod we had and our current Vibe. I would have to look up the manufacture but it was the largest stainless steel sink I could find that would fit and we used the same model sink in both campers. I looked up the sink, it is a Elkay D117193 Dayton 17" x 19" 3 hole bar sink. I just looked on the amazon.com web site they have two in warehouse deals for about $30.00. My wife loved it in that it was a lot easier to wash dishes without getting water everywhere.

Did you get my addition to my first post? I posted pictures of the mod June 25, 2013 but they do not come up when I searched.

Got it, Thanks. I'll check it out, but Amazon comes up at $80. Am I looking in the wrong place?

On amazon's website where it shows prices new and used click used. Everything that I have bought from warehouse deals has been in new condition only the packaging has been damaged.
