A BIG Thank You to Scoul.

At least here in San Diego.
Wow, great help again.
Thank You

The double stick tape holds the mirror solidly? Bought a small mirror from Target, I think it's to use in the shower. Anyway, too small and a little bit of a carnival mirror! Anyway, looking for something bigger, but not ready for a full-length mirror. Kinda looking for a smaller, half-size mirror. Still looking!

Love all the mods!

The curtain in the back window is a pain with those little plastic tracks.  Has anyone replaced this and if so how or with what?

Thanks!

I had the same issues with the curtain. Two problems: The screws used to install the tracks are too large and improperly placed so the curtains do not slide easily. Secondly the tracks are too short so they block half the window when pulled open. I fixed both problems by replacing the track with two 3 foot strips on top and two on bottom, to provide two 6 foot tracks. The original slides and curtains were used. Installing the tracks with #4 screws outside the slide slots made the curtain slide properly. The extra length allowed full view of the window.

This is the best picture I have:




The track is similar to:

Changed out the toilet with a more residential type. Much more comfortable now and do not have to reach over the toilet to flush it.
