Haven't cut any windows in yet, But I'm installing this 24" x 8" tilt out window into the rear wall of the pod, (180 dry bath) this weekend. Since there is no fan or window in the bathroom this will give us some light and venting. I'll let you know how it goes:) (a little nervous).....

I hope your project goes well, which I'm sure it will. Please, do all of us a favor (especial fellow 180 owners) a write up of your mod with photos! My only question for now is what do you plan to use to cut the hole?

Davemar,
I'll do a post on the process after I'm done My go to for this type of project is a 4" grinder,but jig saw or sawsall may come into play. Does your 180 have a fan in the bath? Or does anyone know if the 17.5 has one? I think the no fan, or venting in the bath (rainforest) thing is lame.

Nope, sorry to say my RP doesn't have a vent in the bath. Though the vent is only right outside the bathroom door and there is a gap of a couple inches on the top of the bathroom door which helps vent out moisture from the bath. What I'd really like is what some of the 2018 models have which is a skylight in the bath which helps not only with lighting during the day but makes a small space, the bathroom, seem bigger.

John:
 Will you be working on it this Saturday? If so, I'd like to come be and take a look. I'll be down at Pismo surfing on Saturday.
