I find it EXTREMELY hard to believe these are not the original tiles. I bought the Airstream from the original owner, and although I didn't ask, he never inclined the floor covering had been replaced. Plus, to get all the tiles out like I did requires disassembling the bathroom which requires disassembling just about the whole interior which I have done. There was no evidence the cabinets had ever been removed.
The kicker was ABS solvent weld dripped off the gray water line where it drops under the decking onto a tile.
In the end, it does not matter to me if these tiles were original - they are going to be replaced. But I have every reason to believe they are original, and felt the need to challenge the, "If they are 12X12 they aren't original" statement.
