Hey folks--

When did the configuration on the Westfalia kitchen top cover change to
where the front-most corner is tapered or rounded, and why?

My 83.5 full Westy has a fully square corner on the front of the kitchen
cover where it sits behind the driver's seat. The front corner/edge is a
mirror image of the back corner of the same cover.
I see on some Westy's the front of that kitchen cover is rounded off for
lack of a better word.

I'm guessing this was to accommodate a slightly thicker back on the velour
captain's chairs and allow for more "recline" in the driver's seat. But
maybe there's another purpose. (?)

(My bus came with the thinner Westfalia seats with the striped fabric
upholestry and the fully square front edge on the kitchen top cover.)

If the later style kitchen cover does allow a little more wiggle room for
the driver's seat can I just swap out a later version of the kitchen cover
into my 83.5?
And is it worth it?

Thanks,
Jeff
