Installed two new windows in my tt

I have a 2011 rockwood 2304s ultra light,had it over a year now.We love the trailer but we thought it was kinda dark and poor ventilation.We always wanted windows in the both front sides.Well i bought two windows and installed them today it didnt take long and made a big difference.

Was your wife around when you did this??? I would have had a heart attack. Not that I'd ever question your ability or the ability of my husband, because he can build and/or fix anything. But.....cutting a HOLE in your new camper!?!? That's brave, really brave.

Wow. Just, wow.
Did you have to do much "poking around" to figure out where the studs were inside the wall before you cut? What is your secret?
