Ok, inspired by some of the interesting and helpful posts I've seen on here, I'm going to try to document some of the projects that are involved in making my "new" camper into a better unit for me.
First on the menu: Electronic Thermostat. (Inspired by Northern Explorer)
I may move it later, as this isn't the best location, but hopefully it'll control temp better than the original.
That was easy, how about a new outlet and cover to replace the rasty old one... Lots of Simple Green later, the panel isn't sticky anymore... Eeeewww.
Old
New!
Then a new cover for "shore power" cover. I need to find a new plug for the inside of it yet, as the original wasn't usable.
And finally, the big project: Get rid of the closet where the porta-potti was...
Hopefully I can turn this into storage, and perhaps re-use the door, and gain a bit of room at the back of the camper.
Check this out, someone added seat belts for the fore and aft table seats... You'd have to be pretty short to sit back here with the top down... this comes out as I'll never use it. Front one goes out the front of the camper, so it stays for now to keep the holes plugged.
Enough projects for now!!
I'll post more on the closet to pantry conversion as it goes...
