Neighbor has the same setup - uses less chemical when you are a weekend camper... no filling the tank with chemicals - dispenses based on flushes. Fresh smell to the bathroom now I can tell you that much.

Hi Firefighter938,
Like the storage box up front. Do you happen to have any night pics of how the RGB's look on the front? I have thought of running some blue lights up there to go with the step lights. Did you run the RGB on a different line with a new controller or attach to the awning lights if you did that MOD?
TIA,
crunchman

I just took these! I actually ran then right up to the storage box and put the controller in the storage box and direct wired them to the battery. I have to open lid to control but, I never have to unhook them!!

Really Nice! Would have that it was original. Spot on wood match. I notice a hinge on top step. Did you also make the step a little storage cubby?

Looks nice, great glow!
Where did you place the strip, behind the skirting on passenger side only?

Actually right on the skirting cause it folds under and was a nice spot for it to stick. Runs from from corner to wheel well right over the steps to light up the steps. Only on passenger side. Didn't want to bug neighbors!

I did something very similar. I actually used LED rope lighting from Walmart, I ran it under the front of my 5rv, down the entry side and over this steps. I used some conduit hangers and attached them to the lip like what you have. All I do is plug into a short extension cord hidden under my pass through compartment by my hookups.

Our 5ver is a 2006 Rockwood 8280ss and it was looking pretty worn on the inside. I don't have pictures to post but....... We replaced all the carpeting and linoleum, got rid of the two swivel rockers (that were as comfortable as sitting on a concrete bench) and replaced them with one of these:


We had the sofa, the dining room chairs and all the valances reupholstered and put in a new Aqua Magic Residence toilet. I have some linoleum left and plan to do the basement with it. Cost me about $2000.
