Install a desk

Hi there,
Have a 2021 3761FL with 2 couches.
Want to remove one so I can install a sit/stand desk for the computer,etc.
I know there's a gap where the couch sits -like a platform - in the slide.
Just want to make sure I won't hit any major wiring if I do install the desk as I would want it to have some sort of screws, mounting attachment so the desk doesn't tumble traveling down the road.
Any ideas, suggestions would be appreciated.

We removed the floor mounted dining table in our rig and put a buffet in its place. I used short angle brackets attached to the legs and used 3/4” screws into the floor so they would not protrude all the way through the floor, and this has worked well.

I will be watching this thread closely! We have been considering the same thing. The only drawback is the slide is set up about 6" higher than the floor. So a rolling chair would most likely be dangerous. And there is wiring coming up from the floor in the middle of the slide. Not quite sure what that is for yet.

Our couch was secured with screws so when I installed the desk I used screws that wouldn't protrude more than the factory ones did.
