Some of my favorite mods made over the years......

Decided to stroll down memory lane and more than 12,000 pictures to post certain mod's I feel were beneficial and helpful for other owners.......
The first 4 pictured are
(1) exterior light step operated from inside
(2) adding an illuminated bath light switch for night time use
(4) lining the wardrobe with cedar
(3) raised wooden bath mat

As I grow older, or rather as my eyes age, I find I need more light in my life, particularly at nighttime, thus additional exterior and interior lights.

Hello Jim.
Good to see you back on the forum.I for one copied your idea regarding the plug in on the front storage box.Sure helps finding your way back home when you been partying in the hood.And it helps to be seen in rest areas.Those semis are big.
Take care.
Allan.

Yes, I always fill safer at a truck stop with my lights , particularly when rv's are always forced into the truck areas......

Jim,

I've seen a number of wooden floors installed in the baths on numerous threads; that one you installed is really well done, so inspired I've decided that it will be my second mod this spring soon as I pull my trailer out of winter storage (next week). Right now I'm modifying a set of coat hooks which will be my first install right of the bath door. Cheers!
