I have an original dropped ceiling plastic panel section that was in the hallway of our '73 coach. Also should fit '74 coaches. Has some small cracks around the edges but is quite repairable.
It was used to cover the water line that ran over the ceiling inside early coaches next to the bath module. Later coaches did away with this and went to a flat ceiling. Free to good home. Located in San Jose, CA.

sorry, the ceiling panel has found a home. Looks like these are pretty in demand if anybody else has a neglected one they'd like to get rid of.

thanks,
Karen

Hi Karen,
What did you use to replace that panel in your coach?

The coach is currently gutted, so we pulled the water line out (PO had removed the leaky outside connection anyway) and I'll just use a flat ceiling panel like in the later coaches. You could build a shallow plywood or fiberglass box for the space though, just deep enough to cover the pipe/wires. That's basically all the OEM ceiling panel is.

But do the later ones have the light and 110V outlet?

sorry, didn't see your question until now.

yes, the later coaches have the light and 110 outlet too. It's just recessed up into the ceiling more.
