Most folks probably don't realize that the raised bump on the back of your RV toilet houses the anti-siphon mechanism for your toilet. As part of the design, this anti-siphon mechanism must be kept above the water level where the water discharges into the toilet. If it's not kept high, it will not function as designed. I'm guessing that gravity plays into the design.
To make my old bidet work, I had to cut the hump off the back of the toilet, then mount the anti-siphon plumbing to the wall behind the toilet. I then piped the bidet into the same water as the toilet.
I suppose most residential bidets are going to have their own anti-siphon design, but why take chances.
