Cool Mods - Thread restored 10/18/2012
My daughter was getting a little warm in her bunk during our last camping trip, so I decided to put her a fan in to keep the air flowing. I had been wanting to add a 12-volt fan to the main livin...

Finally got an awning yesterday - will take pics this weekend. If you're in So Cal and need and awning, go with Shade Pro out of San Diego - they are mobile and have great prices and great customer service.
Here's a couple of mods we have done in our new to us trailer.
First, installed Sony Explode stereo - hooked up to Surround Sound system - works great and is in a really easy to get to spot. Will also be installing an outside speaker soon.
Oh, also added a jumbo step handle outside. The walls were too thin to support it (my son ripped it right outta the wall) so, genius wife came up with the broom holder idea. (see picture above) Allows for the screws to have something to 'grab' onto. Works GREAT!
We also mounted our TV into the corner shelving unit. Mounted the bracket to the side shelf unit and use a freezer tension bar to hold it back for safe travel.
The stereo has a usb port on the front - allows me to use a flash drive for my music - I can also hook the ipod up to it. I can also charge my phone from the usb - just an added nicety.
A few more things we have done:
Removed all wallpaper border trim - just my preference for a clean non-old lady look.
In addition, I removed the same pattern from all of the valances and made new curtain ends.
Took down annoying metal blind from above my head in the front bedroom window - made 'black out' curtains instead.
Made 'black out' curtains for both the kids bunk bed windows and added a privacy curtain.
Removed factory installed shower curtain - didn't function well. Removed deadly gold bathroom hardware and replaced it with nickel finish.
Added cupboard organizers.
Will try to get pictures this weekend.
LOVING our new 'large' trailer...
