KT66 Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Hi all, this is my first post. We have had a 2009 Swift Mondial RL for a year now and are really enjoying it. Can anyone tell us what the chrome "half egg shaped" bracket is on the back of the sink unit, which is exposed when the van side door is slid back ? I thought at first it might be for the Fiamma awning leg but it's in the wrong place and there is only the one. Also, there is a horizontal aluminium extrusion about 18 inches long, mounted lower down on this panel below the gas locker door. This seems to allow the dining table to be clipped on. Great for al fresco dining, as long as you don't mind sitting on the ground with the table sloping upwards at the far end by about 6 inches ! There is no mention of either of these brackets in the handbook, so I concluded that they were a modification by the previous cackhanded owner. However I recenty saw some photos of a 2008 Mondial and lo and behold it has the same two brackets. Any clues folks ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel B Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 If the items are those shown in the below photo then they are standard - I wonder if the legs for the table are the wrong ones/have been changed and therefore cannot be made low enough for the support, however it may also be that there should be another smaller table with just 1 leg on that is meant to be used here - could the bracket therefore be something to do with supporting it in transit - I can't tell from the below photo what the 'egg' bracket is like.

Don636 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Probably daft but could the small bracket be a bottle opener? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KT66 Posted January 17, 2016 Author Share Posted January 17, 2016 Hi Don636 Not daft at all - I think you might have solved it ! It's too cold to go out and take the cover off to look at the moment, but I'm pretty sure the egg shaped bracket is indeed a crown cork remover. Maybe after a few bottled beers I won't even notice the slope in the table any more.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
