Don't know where to begin so I will just start throwing things up. Please excuse the dirt inside and out it has been raining alot where we are and have not had a chance to clean. Didn't want water from swimming or the occasional shower mishap to go where it shouldn't belong I decided to seal all edges on the floors with a matching silicon caulking. Attachments:

Didn't like the industrial look of the wheel hubs...or lack thereof. So this was the solution. Attachments:

Water stains everywhere so I improvised and made some simple gutters and gutter extensions from siding J channel and pvc tube for the drip extensions. Loosened the screws and notched the J channel where the screws where then slide it up and under and just re-tighten the screws. Worked like a charm. Attachments:

Oh and similar for the AC. Water just ran down the side of the camper and was constantly staining...not anymore. Cut, shaped and molded some J channel then secured it with some dycor. Bada bing- bada boom.  Attachments:

Mounted underneath the camper spaced about 6' apart I built some vinyl boxes and put marine grade coaxial speakers in them. Ran the wires along the inside of the cabinet then down one corner on the inside of the camper and concealed them with a sticky backed pvc wire channel. From there the wires went into the seat storage area and out through sealed grommets in the wheel well. Attachments:

Some parasitic drain was always draining the battery after a month or so. Decided to mount a kill switch to the battery housing. Attachments:

All 3 are turned on and off when needed by the way of a lighted rocker switch. The blue light on the switch is kinda bright so it has a small piece if electrical tape covering most of the led...leaving just enough light to show me when its on. Attachments:

Got it from ebay. But they are all over. Think if I remember correctly was listed a marine battery kill switch.

I don't know anything about that particular switch, but I have had failures with cheap switches. You can't go wrong with the Blue Sea brand. Blue Sea |

I too had a cheap switch with a key insert from a chain name auto store and it lasted all of 2 actions. This switch is heavy duty and made for marine environment. I have been using it 3 years and not one issue with it. It is BEP 710 Marine Battery Kill Switch There are other that look like it but BEP is the manufacturer. |
