Question Got a 5.0TA WITHOUT the U-shaped dinette?

If you've got a late-model 5.0TA without the U-Shaped Dinette, I'm looking for pics of the underseat space for both sides (seat-bottom lifted).

I've reviewed ETI's location diagrams, searched here, but I'm still falling short of a good visualization of exactly what's under each bench in the way of electrical / battery / plumbing / mechanical systems, how it's arranged, and how much space it occupies.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated (pics or links to posts with pics I may have missed?).

Thank You In Advance!

(my interest at this time has nothing to do with pros and cons of the different seating arrangements per se, that's a totally different topic )

Have you looked at the YouTube videos on the Escape page? I haven't looked at the 5.0 but they did show under seats on the 21C. I guess you could do a one on one if you don't have any luck.

Yep on the videos, all I found for the 5.0TA were U-shaped seating; close, but I'd like to see it with the straight benches.

I waited because I thought someone else would contribute photos under both sides of the benches, I only have photos from under the drivers side. Since none so far, here is what I have. Black tank is about 13" x 8.5" (if I remember correctly), a 2 gallon thermal expansion tank (AKA accumulator) I added. I mounted the EMS against the rear outside wall, this is not shown in a factory location. With two ETI installed six volt batteries under the passenger side bench there is room to store 2-3 large (compressible) sleeping bags, and not much else.

Thanks, SWCO, that's a good start and more than I had

I still have my 1971 Aggie ID from one pre-freshman summer as a student on the Texas Clipper out of Pelican Island before entering UT (it's a long story, lol). Hullabaloo, Caneck! Caneck!
