Turtleback makes them.... http://turtlebacktrailers.com/

Awesome stuff. Thanks for sharing. Photos are :victory:

OP, any insight on the iPad rearview camera?? Build page, details, ETC...

Here's my install on my FJ. http://www.azfj.org/index.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=9529&highlight=solar Here is another thread on MUD, that highlights a few more insatalls (including mine). https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/land-cruiser-solar-power.803436/

Please quantify your statement. I and many other use Gaia GPS via an iPad and have zero complaints with the hardware and software. The iPad is a fantastic solution that also allows the user to use the device for more than just GPs capabilities.

The Kenwood 710 radios are solid. I find them easier to navigate than the Yaesu line, I've had both. Currently have one 710D in each vehicle. The only issue is going to be finding an external GPS unit solution for the older non-G units as the Green Light Labs unit is NLA (I did find a backup...

We have an inverter (1800 watt) in our Turtleback Trailer, I only use for our electric kettle. I figure that the energy used each morning to heat the coffee water is nil due to solar replenishment, vs using propane from the stove.... Everything else is charged/run from a 12v source. Solar is...

I've been using cellular iPads for years. Started with a 1st gen (AT&T) model with 32GB of memory. Upgraded to a 2nd gen (Verizon) unit with 64GB and last year pulled the trigger on a new iPad PRO (Verizon) with 128GB. Currently have about 70GB of maps downloaded. Works flawless as a GPS...

Sorry I missed this.... The FJ has a Baja Rack platform on it. The trailer sports a Rhino Rack platform.

They are the standard MC4 connector that comes on the panel. If I were to do it again today, I'd use SAE connectors.

~ Here are some photos of my install in my FJC back in 2013. 100 watt Grape Solar panel. ScanStrut for wires passed into the rear cabin. Homemade brackets to attach to my BajaRack.

This is legit and on par with the name brand at 30% less. The bags alone are worth $15/ea...we use the bags in our Turtleback Trailer for kitchen storage and our Weber-Q BBQ fits nicely inside the table compartment (with minor mods) https://www.walmart.com/ip/39511141

Both of our rigs with our Turtleback Trailer.

You could do as I did and mount the awning (Foxwing in my case) with ballast clamps and some flat stock. Works great and is solid as a rock. The Baja Rack outer tube is 1" od. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/aaf-all14178/overview/

Cool trip report. Congrats on the engagement....

I agree. I remove the lid almost every outing, especially when packing for, or unpacking after a trip.

Be very careful when you have the Home Depot "guy" cut the material....they're not setup for precision cuts at all...most, if not all of their panel saws are not true. The blade they use is for rough cuts and will splinter your drawer material pretty bad..... If it were me, I'd have them cut...

Negative, that is the 7 pin cord....
