Libby - I looked at D&PMac’s profile and he has not posted to the forum since July 2020, so you probably won’t get a reply to your question. Below is the photo he posted showing the dinette removed. My guess would be that there will be the prefinished wallboard behind the dinette and there will be nail or screw holes in the wall and floor. I noticed what appears to be “off-color” triangular pieces of wallboard in the corners (see red arrows). I have no idea if those were installed in the factory or if D&PMac installed those, or what might be their purpose. My GUESS would be that those corner fillets were installed by the owner possibly because the factory corner wallboard pieces were not trimmed out, and maybe he thought they were “ugly”. If they were installed in the factory - the workers picked random pieces of wallboard to make those cuts and since they were not going to be exposed behind the dinette - it did not have to match the wallboard. Also I notice there is no base trim where the wallboard meets the floor. If you hate the dinette I would think you would be happier with it gone and could look past a few missing trim pieces.

I have never dealt with dinette removal but I would think the components are installed using screws and should come out relatively easy. Just take your time and look for screws as you go. Get the plywood seat bottom off so you can access the base and wall screws.
