Question Entertainment system help

Need to replace soundbar on our 2012 3700 RL. Can't seem to figure out how to remove black cloth cover over unit to get it out. Has anyone replaced theirs and how did you do it. Don't want to ruin cloth cover. Appreciate any suggestions.

On ours, there seems to be three separate speakers behind the cloth covering. I did not completely remove the cloth covered frame, but was able to slide out the flat screen TV, and by reaching up above from inside the compartment, was able to slide out the frame with the cloth attached to it. I'm guessing the entire frame with the cloth attached can be removed this way, as it appears the cloth and frame are held in place just by friction. Good luck. Oh, and welcome to the forum.

There is no access from the TV area to the speaker box on a 3700. The TV raises up from a lower compartment. The speakers are fully enclosed in their own compartment.

I am pretty sure I have removed that cloth panel on my 3700 (it has been a while) by using a thin blade applying pressure on each side to work it out. As Bob wrote, it seems to be held on by friction.

P.S. It is great to hear of someone else with a 3700 RL. Being a Keystone orphan is lonely.

Thank you for the suggestion. I have tried gently prying on one side but not both at same time. Sure seems there should be a better way to access it.

We are really enjoying our Big Sky as we just started full-timing in Oct. A
great layout and all the creature comforts.

rohrmann,
Thank you for your response. Seems our setup is different from yours.
