In our 179,  I was irrritated by the constant "ON" of the stereo system. Even if it was turned "off:, there was still a backlight and battery draw. We boondock a lot and I did not want the battery draw when we were using the pod.  I installed an inline switch in the 12v power line by removing the 4 screws that held the unit in place. Easy 10 minute job--but it takes 2 people. The second hands hold the unit up near the opening while you make the splices-there are a lot of wires that connect to the stereo unit and it can't be pulled out but about 4 inches.

note that the white rod is one end of the curtain rod that encloses the bed area.

Thank you, I have noticed the radio/tv backlights.  I've got one of
those battery switches from my off the grid days. Will install it in
the next few days. Thanks for the answer!
