Sorry for the delay! If this were my only project I would have been done months ago. It seems like every time I get back to working on the camper I spend half the time reorganizing my plans. I also have a tendency to add to projects including a water heater replacement. I removed the OEM water heater and replaced it with a direct fit suburban water heater with the remote ignition control. Here are some pictures of the work.

The new heater:


The Empty hole to be filled with the new heater:

The switch installed:

The control box installed:

I had more painting to do so the final installation is pending...
I ordered a new radio to replace the OEM analog radio/tapedeck which was excellent at blaring static.... should be here soon!
