Here's the link to another post I did about that.
It's from Amazon and was $15.00. The post has the link. It took me a while to determine where I could install without having to drill a hole and still having access to 12v power. It's mounted a little lower than I'd prefer, but will be convenient when in bed. Otherwise I just need to bend over a bit 'cause it really needs to be seen direct on. Also, it is bright. The display can be blue or green. Green is even brighter than the blue. |

Follow up to the question about using Velcro to attach the seat ends to the bench in the dinette.
I found that the bench ends do indeed have a purpose; to keep the plywood under the cushions from sliding and keeping my ass from falling in the storage area. Well that didn't happen, but I could see the possibility. So I flipped the plywood over and added 1"X 1"'s at each end to keep the plywood from sliding either direction. Since I was there, I also ran a piece vertically in the middle as an attempt to strengthen the seat. I'll post a pic if I can remember. |

I just removed the fabric-covered ends. In addition to not staying on they were uncomfortable if you were sitting on the edge. The plywood in mine had hinges so no issues with sliding. I guess FR decided to save a buck on the hinges in later years.
