If we are talking the more challenging, complicated and/or difficult fun mods on our TT:
- added 10 new LED puck lights under cabinets and in shower
- 4 stage water filtration under kitchen sink using 10" whole house filters
- installed water pressure regulator, gauges and master shutoff valve under kitchen sink
- relocated awning, slide & light switches to more accessible location
- installed 120V recept. and 12VDC charging center where the original switches above used to be
- light switch on wall for bedroom lighting (totally concealed wiring)
- completely new 15" deep cabinets in bedroom using factory doors, installed in empty cavity behind the shower - upper is 15"W x 30" tall and lower is 28"W x 30" tall.
- new drawers on roller bearing slides beside bed in cubby hole spaces
- replaced all standard LED "pancake" overhead lights withmore attractive low profile ones
- installed SensarPro on the wall below TV. (concealing the co-ax cables was NOT an easy task.)
- lighting inside the pass-through compartment
- adjustable shelving in upper cabinets in kitchen and above dinette and in pantry, bathroom & wardrobe.
What the dealer did for us (mostly because our TT is new):
- installed Horst Miracle probes on 3 tanks (had to pull down underbelly)
- new Monroe shock absorbers
- replaced "standard" wobbly dinette table legs with Lance ones
- Dexter equalizers and wet bolts
My favorite is the new shock absorbers. What a difference.
There WILL be more mods in the future. Making something better than it already is, tinkering and figuring out out how to do something is what makes camping great, lol!
