Is my roof prepped for AC? Also

Where would I find the wiring if it was prepped for AC ? It is a 2010 flagstaff 206 ltd. from what I have read the steel is vacuum formed inside the roof? How do I know? Was it standard? Could I do the AC myself ? Thanks in advance! Sorry for the thousand question second post, I am just too excited to be a pop up owner once again !

You could always pull off the inside portion of the vent and see if the wiring is stubbed in. I would think you would also have a breaker in your fuse panel for the A/C. If it's wired, I would assume it has supports built in for the A/C unit, but others may know better.

A magnet might disclose the presence of steel.

Unless it's an aluminium structure.

Thanks everyone, I looked at the converter and there was a breaker for the AC and also under the seat was a junction box labeled for AC use. I also took out the shroud on the roof vent( it needed to be lubed badly anyway) and it does seem to have steel and wood surrounding the hole. I think I am good to go should I decide to spring for the AC in the spring!
