Changed them both out for these: http://www.1aauto.com/search?q=tow+mirrors&year=2010&model=1521 Mind you, these are the F150 mirrors, I found a set that looked like these to fit the Expedition. Much better than the strap on mirrors, better visibility, power, heated, signaled and puddle light for both sets. The Expedition set shook a little bit, but the ones on my F150 are rock solid.Re: Bruder X: New Extreme CamperTrailer CaravanI watched the YouTube videos of the Bruder last night, I want one.Re: Is there a QUALITY Travel Trailer still built?We've had two Keystone trailers and a Forest River since 2014. First was a Springdale. I loved it, but the wife felt cramped. Traded that in on a Greywolf the next year. Wife loved the floorplan, but I found that the quality just wasn't there. That one got damaged in a fire, so with our insurance payout we got our current Keystone, a '16 Hideout 26BHSWE. We're on our 4th weekend trip with it right now, and we're both totally satisfied. Except for me, I'd rather not have a slide, but as we all know, if we want to keep our sanity, we have to concede some things to the wife.Re: Need a battery in your TT for your tail lights to work?Have you checked the fuses in your truck yet?Re: Cool Mods - Thread restored 10/18/2012Thanks! And thanks for posting my pic direct. Haven't figured out how to do that yet.Re: Cool Mods - Thread restored 10/18/2012 With the recent posts about locking battery boxes, here's mine. I used a Weatherguard rail mount box and modified it to fit the a-frame. Then I painted it black. There's also a battery cutout switch with a removable knob, and my solar charge controller, which may not be in that picture, but it's there now. And it's vented.Re: How do I wire in an inverter smkettner wrote: With two batteries a single 600 to 1000 watt inverter should be fine to run the fridge, tv and cpap. These might be all on the same circuit and you just need a small transfer switch to power them up. Or two switches on two circuits if needed. $50 15 amp transfer switch. I just ordered that, cheaper than Amazon believe it or not.Re: inverter review?Okay SoundGuy, question for you. How did you hide the wiring for your dedicated duplex outlets? I'm planning on installing my inverter in the front storage bay so it's close to my battery bank, with power to the television and the outdoor kitchen.Re: Keystone Passport - wired for solarThat solar power connection above your front storage is it. It's meant to work with a suitcase solar setup with an integral charge controller. If you want real solar power, you will have to wire it in yourself.
