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 living area anyway, so I decided to tackle both jobs today. A trip to Wal-Mart for two fans($8.48 each) and we're halfway there.

She picked the spot, and I got to work -



I picked up the power from her overhead light. All I have left is to install a short piece of wire cover and I'm done -



I added one in the main area -



I dropped by Lowe's and found this cool soap dispenser. I also just installed these Pop-a-Toothbrush holders -



I added a sopa dispenser to the kitchen area as well. I also installed a Pop-a-Napkin under the radio -



Here's an easy mod. I found this over the door towel rack at Walmart and it works great -

Network with fanily and friends to find a sheetmetal worker that does 'side work' or check for metal fabricators or sheet metel shops in your area. Take pictures of the cover type you want. If you can't remove the existing plastic cover, make a cardboard mock-up that fits your opening-including mounting/latch points.

Hello Guy's

I'm new here and was looking for someone could help me out.

I want to replace the cheap plastic cover on my Renegade. All it would take is to just yank it off with 2 fingers.
Looking for the aluminum one like the Weekend Warrior unit has.

Not very secure at all.

Let me know if you can sell me one.

Let me know if someone here can build me one. I can't seem to find what I'm looking for.

This is the entertainment area where the TV normally sits with the VCR/SAT/DVD player in the cubby below. There was a large oval mirror on the wall originally, but with our 27" LCD TV on the shelf the mirror was useless so it was moved and with the TV there was a large wasted area behind it so I decided to put some shelves on the wall to help organize our VCR tapes, DVD disks, remotes storage, etc.



I made this shelf out of oak with the decorative railing that match others around the trailer. Total cost with the stain was close to $80 of which almost $30 was just for the railings. The cabinet is 31" wide and 20" high.



Here is the cabinet mounted and has room for VCR tapes/disks on top and storage for other TV related items on the bottom two shelves. The TV here is not the one that normally goes there and is an old tube type.



Overall I'm pleased with it and was able to match the color fairly close.

I don't think I have posted any in the thread but have posted them in other threads. They would probably take up one or two pages.:W
