Hi everyone, we are new owners of a 2016 RP183G. We just got back from 3 days of camping and love this R-Pod. We went to help our daughter and husband build a house off the grid so we could not plug in to their electrical which did not really matter. We put a gel foam on the bed and a double sleeping bag which is the size of a queen size bed. It was very comfortable and easy to deal with.
We got new lights from the dealer we bought it from and we need to replace all four in the garage. Only one was not working but they did not have that item number. We are not sure how to replace them. Any ideas?

Hello and welcome! It looks like you are off to a good start.

Unfortunately, I can't help you with the lights as I do not know which lights you have. You might check Camping World or Amazon for the lights.

Thank you for reaching out. After some thought we figured it out and went at it. The light is much nicer than the original.

Welcome! Your daughter's off grid house sounds really interesting. Solar powered by chance?

Yes, it will be solar. Right now they are getting ready for the foundation pour. It is quite complex because the land slopes and it is on a huge bluff. Luckily my son-in-law is in the construction business!
