- danojenoExplorerThe nylon retaining strap for my pocket door ripped from screw, which holds it in place. This allowed my pocket door to swing freely in transit and break loose one of the two lower guides for the door. I tried to re-attach the guide to the wall using small expanding plastic screw anchors, but it pulled out again. Any thoughts on how to re-attach the lower guide...it looks like this.
- BobWandererExplorerI just unhook one tank and I have an adaptor and extension hose to run to our BBQ. Simplest way I could get it to work right. I tried the connection that was built into the rig without much sucess, and did not want to buy another BBQ.

But thinking about one of these
http://www.campingworld.com/shopping/item/90deg-stay-flow-adapter/24025 - danojenoExplorerx2...you will need a BBQ set up for low pressure, which you can buy, or configure one to work. I did a search a while back and there were some good threads, but I gave up.

I just noticed a "T" in the gas line right underneath the frame where the line comes out of the tanks. The "T" is run about 8" then capped.
I am guessing a person could tie into the line at the cap for a BBQ ?
Any idea if any ole' BBQ would run off this or if it would need something special to work correctly ?

Sounds like a BBQ outlet. One thing to consider is that most regular BBQ's have a built in pressure regulator to reduce pressure off the bottle but this line is already low pressure off the main regulator. You'll need a BBQ that's set up appropriately like a RVQ. I've tried many different configurations of tapping into my propane system for a Weber Q and finally gave up; I carry a separate 5 gallon bottle for the BBQ and a portable outdoor heater. - my996duc1ExplorerI just noticed a "T" in the gas line right underneath the frame where the line comes out of the tanks.

=Racorman I just finished building out the battery cabinet to accomodate (4) six volt batteries and also installed a 2000 watt inverter.
Question: did you have to add any support in the tray, or did the four six volt batteries fit in the orginal space?
Thanks
Yup...... I needed to do some modification and add additional support to hold the (4) 6 volt Interstates - Aquaholic502Explorer

Has anyone put LED's in the existing fixtures yet? I would like to put some of the Rigid industries LED's but they are on a flat plate and the inside of the fixture is rounded so not sure how well they would mount.
Well I took a better look at the light fuxture today and they are not rounded on the inside but have like a heat sheild. So I think im going to order some of the rigid lights because I bought some LEDs from a local store that was $30 and only 250 lumens. For the price and brightness of the rigid lights I think its best to get them. - BakersfieldExplorer

Thanks - Aquaholic502ExplorerI believe the type of bulb is called the wedge mount in the fixture. You can get them with the the bulb only or the plate like rigid industries. I like the rigid ones because they are 450 lumens for the bright ones and 315 for the other and a lot of other companies that make them are less then 300 lumens.

I want to try to replace the actual bulb with a LED assembly rather than replacing the bulb with a wired flat panel of LED's.
I do not even know what type of bulb (style) is in the overhead main lights but they are on the list to upgrade to LED.
Here are a couple places I have seen the LED lights (not sure if they have what is needed yet) :

or here, maybe :

*** EDIT *** went out and looked. The fixture says to replace with a "921" bulb. I would guess that is the base style needed.
