Thanks. I recalled the job had been fully described earlier as a total replacement, and a number of assemblies with lids were available online. Never got around to it.

Are you wanting to replace your current surface mount 2-burner gas cook top with a recessed one with glass cover? If so, check out the Suburban website. They have recessed 2 and 3 burner cook tops. (My 2021 171 uses a recessed Suburban cook top with a hinged glass cover that is flush with the counter top. You will have to verify you have sufficient depth. You will also need to cut a slightly larger opening in your countertop with a saber saw. 

I would not recommend recessing your existing surface mount cook top. You would need to fabricate a metal pan larger than your existing burner to protect the counter top edges from heat damage.

This has been discussed before, but Search isn’t returning any hints so I’m calling on institutional memory of successfully sinking and covering the two-burner cooktop that came with my 2015 RP-179. Nothing shows up at etrailer, and Amazon has a plethora of new design but without covers.

Thoughts?
