How did you mount the spice rack and the shelf over the bed. The walls are really thin.

I finished installing two cubbyholes in my underseat storage. We found it is most crowded inside at bedtime, when we are using all the berth space and want access to our bags without lifting the top of the benches. Nice to stuff bags and sundries through these instead. Used simple 'stain-able' 1/2 inch outside corner moulding to finish the edges. Will stain the finish work when I get around to it.




Photo of the DC socket I installed a little while ago. I wanted it in the entertainment center to plug in our mounted TV while boondocking, using a small fist-sized inverter, and to have a shelf for our phones while charging.

Rain tested with a hose and it was good. Taking it for a week up on Cedar Mesa in Utah next week, plenty of rough dirt roads and slickrock. I'll report back.

Jonknite - have you been on the road with the Pod with the new window yet? Any issues?

Rain tested yet?

Thanks!

Glass mat batteries inside small aircraft are very common. They do have a small vent line though.  The price of lithium batteries is almost cost effective. Another year or so hopefully they will be. The weight savings and ability to run down 95% without damaging the battery is nice.

Should come off pretty easy.  Any residue can be removed.

My uncle lives in Placitas.  We were through the area last summer.

Oh, I thought they were fairly easy to peel off. I peeled off some side logos...can't stand the frog. But that's in a different place. I love that new window, showed it to my husband. Tell me how it stands over time. Thanks.

No reason other than I didn't know what it would look like if I tried to get it off.

Is there a reason why the rpod logo was left on when the new window was put in?

Shelpod, I liked your idea of making the window cover out of the cut out section. I added a 1/4" plywood backing and glued some EPDM tubing around the edge.
