Ken, had the same problem and not much time before leaving for a trip, so I
drilled a hole and the supply fits straight on...
Have a cheap BFC cooker, so my gas hose enters the box on the side. Hartmut

Ken,
I had a good look and cant find the connection elbow.
Sounds like it wouldn't fit anyway.
Might be at my dads house in his locked garage and he is over in the US getting his new bus onto the ship to bring it back to Oz and wont be back till mid July.
Anyway, I am sure you will work something out - Harts idea seems to work.
Cheers,
Skot

Ken,
Don't know if this is of any help as I have a non Trakka conversion. The fixed cupboard by the sliding door houses a marine dual jet stove that is connected by a probably quarter inch pipe to the sealed externally entered housing on the off side of the van. At that point it converts to a flexible hose to connect with the gas bottles whereas at the stove end the quarter inch pipe runs up the back of the cupboard where it is sleeved inside steel pipe for protection , connecting with the stove with a right angle joint. The whole set up was certified by the WA authorities at the time of the original registration there.
I just wond if going small bore copper would allow you access to the fittings you need albeit that you have to go back to the flexible connection at the bottle end?
Good luck and don't test it with a match.
