So like I said I removed the full size water tank and replaced it with a half size I ordered off amazon. I used a mix of pex and rubber hose to run lines. I had to replace the pump sink faucet. They are cheep but also built cheap. Works good. I replaced both hoock ups on the outside. Hook the water up to one and when it's full it blasts out the other. Tank is sufficient for the camping we do. Lasts 3-4 days without being to carefull. I run a small hose off the sink drain and just stick it in a 4l water jug for grey water.

I installed a 12volt fan under the top cabinet. Tied into the wiring for the light installed under the same cabinet. ImageUploadedByWander The West1475011053.433454.jpg
Replaced the old 12v outside light with a new LED one. It's bright but the light it gives off is not very pleasant. ImageUploadedByWander The West1475011156.217702.jpg

Came up with this as a hanger for the Colman lantern. One on each side.

Camping with a 1 year old was a bit of a challenge. Came up with this to keep him confined while we're cooking or when he was having a nap and we were sitting outside. ImageUploadedByWander The West1475011506.977671.jpg

They are curtain or shower curtain rods. I used those plumbing clamps to fasten them to the hydraulic rams. Takes about 2-3 minutes to set up but collapse down for storage.

The Perrelli webbing (I think that's what it is called) is kind of rough on the outside. I ordered a roll but only replaced the door section. Will get to the rest later. It is expensive stuff. ImageUploadedByWander The West1475011832.624495.jpg

Installed a digital thermometer in the camper. It reads outside and inside temp. Found a consistent 5' Celsius spread during our trips when we were in the camper. Worth the $20 purchase price. ImageUploadedByWander The West1475011971.377881.jpg

Also installed a co alarm as well as a smoke detector. In the same picture you can see I screwed pipe insulation along the wood edge leading into the bunk. It was just bare wood and the boy kept hitting his head on it. ImageUploadedByWander The West1475012139.074882.jpg ImageUploadedByWander The West1475012153.824609.jpg
