That looks awesome!

I wish I had the skills to pull that off! (So does my DW.)

Looks really nice! I've got one for mine, can't wait for a few days of warmer weather so I can do the installation

Looks fantastic Nccamper! Your welcome. Glad it worked out so well. A bit of work but worth it in the end as you can tell. Now your front bunk will be warm if you have ac power. That was our problem as the gas furnace only warmed the rear of the trailer and our kids froze on the front bunk. Plus you get the bonus of the nice led fireplace!

Thanks again. We were using a space heater in the front, but when the DW saw you post it was a "must do". But to tell the truth, I wanted it too!

I had to move the battery cutoff switch so I moved it higher and put a 3 " soffit vent in it's place. Liked so well I put another on the other side just to make sure I had enough intake air for the heater.Click image for larger version

I put in a different style battery cutoff switch to give me more room for the fireplace insert. Moving it up was a great idea, I probably should have just done that. Again, nice job!

Nice but my Radio is all the way over to the left and battery shutoff up by the battery so they really changed a lot

I found it at a pawn shop! I just removed it from the small cabinet it was in.
