Looking good. Nice that you can get out and use it while you get it all dialed in too!

It sure is nice! We spent the weekend in it again.

We look a little large on the ferry :D

Little work yesterday between rain showers.

Added support tabs for the lights.

Drilled lots of holes, mounted. Need 3 longer bolts....

I think this is really going to bother me.... Middle one is a single I bought from a different mfg. Mount was a little different height, but I didn't realize it was thinner as well. Ugh

Nice work. It looks good. Without knowing the mount difference, don't think anyone will notice.

Yeah you cant see the mount difference really, its just a plate across the back, but I mocked up with the other ones, the hood hits this one a touch. It opens and closes, but they have to bend around each other, not ideal.

And for a poopy update :sombrero:

One 10' hose works great ( I have two)

And The clean out works ok. Not as good as I hoped, but I dont have to get on the roof....

If I close the dump valve, I have to turn the flow on the rinse hose way down as the air has to come out the same vent. Never had an issue with this going straight in the roof. Im tempted to add a hose connection to the tank, just below the top next to the dump valve.

Worked on the propane tank some more.

A load of undercoating on it. Thats some nasty ****.

Also got a big rig mud flap, I think it should work well. Gotta do some hacking, but it looks like I can anchor across the top, and at the bottom outside corner to the body.

Then added a deck plate to the back side of the tool box on the passenger side so I can get to the gas valve.
