I'm seriously considering the purchase of a 2000 GS independence, but will need to add an overhead bunk. Has anyone ever done this?looking for suggestions, recommendations and pictures.
TIA

I would think that it would be VERY difficult and costly to even TRY to do successfully. The existing coach has things in place, and probably in the WAY, of trying to make that work.

On our Palazzo, the front cabinets actually come DOWN with the bed... I don't imagine you could possibly do that with 'adding' a bed. Most coaches which have a let-down bunk are built AROUND that mechanism, the option is not just simply 'added' to the coach later.

I found this on another site. It is showing working on a drop down and shows the mechanism and mounting pretty good. Don't know if is what you are looking for or not.
