Hello everyone, I have a 1707t that is missing the couch back cushion, any color will do. Also the previous owner took out the bunk bed and I would like very much to put one back in. If anyone has one of these items or both please let me know. I’m willing to drive 6-8 hours out from Disneyland’s area. Thank you very much.
 
Sofa cushion

Have someone that has a 17T give you the measurements for the back cushion. Go to an upholstery shop and have one made up. A new cushion will be sturdier than the cheap foam in the original.
 
Guileinca, I have someone that just asked about my bunk bed but if he does not want it I am in Lakewood let me know and what do you think its worth? Never used and never used the mattress either.

Your just down the street

I don't know what is a good price, I was thinking $300 but not sure if that is to much what do you think, I am open to any suggestions. By the way you're a short distance from me really I am near the 605 and Del Amo depending on where in Anaheim you are in. Let me know your thoughts on the price and even less if you help me unhook it.

Sofa Cushion -- I agree with Usagi's comment. I have a 2004 17 footer. I just replaced the seat cushion for the sofa, with higher density foam from an upholsterer. It was expensive, but for my back, I needed more support when sleeping. Joann's Fabrics sells foam, probably higher density than the original and in the 5" thickness needed for your missing cushion. If you can't sew a cover for it yourself (I certainly couldn't) I'd bet the people at Joann's could put you in touch with someone who could do it for you, an experienced person, and probably altogether much less than what I paid for foam alone.

The dimensions for the back-of-the-sofa cushion are mostly the same as for the cushions at the back of the bench seats at the table, except for length, which is exactly the same as the seat cushion.

When I replaced the foam in our upholstery, I had pieces cut at the "Foam and Fabric" shop in Tucson. I got pieces that were 1" thicker than the OEM size and were a much firmer foam type. They were not difficult to put into the original fabric covers and they have been great, since I did this back in 2007. As I recall, the entire re-padding cost was in the $300 range, which I thought was reasonable, since they cut it for me too.

I'm sure with inflation, the cost would be higher now though.

just a note on installing new foam into the covers (new or old)....Wrap the foam with a sheet of plastic...use a vacuum to suck the air out of the foam...with vacuum still running, insert the foam into the cover....remove plastic...
 
Thank you everyone for your responses, it’s awesome. I know what to do now. Especially thank you Scott for your beautiful bunk bed. I’m pretty sure we will enjoy it on our future outings.
