Will do. Lots of pictures. Just got my Polk sound bar today. Will be doing that too.

I would not put anything aft of the DEF. The aftertreatment catalyst gets very hot when regenerating.

Has anyone bought this for the bed yet? I just ordered it for mine since apparently FR doesn't put them on: Large Bedlift Kit - Hatchlift 120-120 - Bed Pads & Mattresses - Camping World
If mine doesn't come in soon I'm going to go crazy and go broke buying stuff before I even have it!

Wow you are on top of it. No ours came with nothing to hold the bed up and it's a pain. In fact that was a complaint on my warrantee list, coach is at the dealer now for several minor cosmetic items. I am aware that FR will likely do nothing about it, but didn't hurt to put it on the list. Thanks for finding the sale item, a coming attraction for sure.

Put my remote weather sensor in the same area behind propane tank, works well.

I looked into that and came to the conclusion that based on where you would want to mount it there really wasn't any meaty wood to support the weight of the mattress.

You'll have to let us all know how it turns out, I was afraid it would just end up damaging the paneling. It is a nice useful product though!

If any of you can't stand the cheap shower head, the oxygenics model works well. We used it all summer last year and it definitely increases the shower head pressure somehow.....

i just ordered the same thing. Funny all the other models have this and we don't ....I will soon..

What are you all planning to mount the hinge to? Is there any solid wood in the side paneling? Upon first glance it seemed sort of flimsy to support that much weight.

I had one before in a previous TT and just ordered the Fury to replace the transfer i had put in,

Here is a nice little mod that I put in last fall as the bathroom sucks for a place to put shower towels:

Umbra Flip Five Wall Hook, Metal Nickel & Reviews | Wayfair


It fits nicely above the picture in the bathroom and is stealth when not in use. better than anything else I have found and it is neatly concealed.

I just talked with the factory and there is no pre wire in the Legacy in the handle to do this modification. It would be a big job.

I believe the handles are the same on the Berkshire and the Legacy. Can one of you confirm if the handle is clear and doesn't light up when porch light is on? Even though my Legacy hasn't come in yet, I already ordered 2 light kits!

I got rid of that picture day one, replaced with a mirror just to cover the area and installed brushed nickel towel racks. That area just proves RV decorators/designers never used an RV before.

Thanks, you just saved me an hour of looking for wires.

I like the shower hook and we have two little ones so we are always looking to hang multiple towels. I think I will have to pick one of these up.

You hung it above the picture?

Figures! Guess I'll be skipping this project.

[dndnva]

Too bad about the handle not being prewired! Guess I'll have to send my 2 light kits back.

Yes I did. Looks cool and blends well. Looks like wall art

Looks like a pain to install, however I am intrigued now and will put that on my rainy day project list and see what I can come up with.

I wonder if you could piggy back on the outside light wiring and fish a wire in the wall from the light down to the handle? Anyone attempt that?
