Don't know if all B190's have this fold down in the middle back of the sofa. The metal on mine just broke, rusted through. I have no idea where to go to get the metal repaired/replaced. Has anyone else had this problem?

Hi Lou,
The oak on our snack tray is split, so I replaced it with a cutting board from Crate and Barrel than is more practical for us. The original cup holders on the snack tray are discolored, but intact. They are still secured in the tray, but it looks like they could be removed with some effort. Or the oak could be reglued. Either way, you are welcome to any and all parts of this. PM me if interested.

Thank you for the offer Keystone. However, it's the metal fold-down mechanisum that has rusted and broke. It sounds like that is still being used by you.

Mine are still working and don't plan to get rid of them but thought I would offer a suggestion. Our van is a 1998 so I don't know if it similar to yours. On ours the metal looks like simple flat pieces that could be fashioned with a hacksaw and a drill from flat bar stock. I don't have detailed dimensions but the bars appear to be 1/4" thick X 3/4" wide and about 4" long.
If you're handy, or have a friend that's handy, buy some metal and make the replacement bars.
