I hung my mirror with double-sided sticky back tape as described. However, I hung my clock with 3M velcro strips (that came out of a package of 3M hooks). That way the clock wouldn't bounce around on the walls while traveling, but when I needed to I could still take it down to change the battery (whereas the mirror was permanently hung). Just sharing an idea. Diane

If asking us..
We got it at Lowes, We had to ask for a mirror for a dorm room.. The woman said.. "well, all I have is this.." perfect. It only weighs about a pound, and is up there with double sided sticky tape. 1sq inch of 3m sticky tape will hold up a pound.. we used 12sqin. So far, it's been on three trips, about 1000 miles total, no problems yet.. |

Where did you get the mirror and how did you mount it? I have been looking and haven't seen anything that I was sure would stay put and not shake off during towing.

A couple more pics.. and today's 12v outlet install...
Here you can see the 12v outlet below the 120v, and notice the nice, I swear as comfortable as home, mattress. I was able to just "tap" the heater 12v supply for power.. ![]() And then just a mirror and white board.. ![]() ![]() Our house couldn't operate without the magnets on the fridge and the chalkboard beside the stove.. so this gives us both, in a compact manner, feeling more like home.. ![]() We also swapped our interior lights for LED's.. but I can't get picture that looks even kind of clear of them.. OH, and I PROMISE this is the last time I will post cell phone pictures.. we do own a couple real cameras.. |

Nice touch on that 12 Volt receptacle. Don't think I've ever seen one in CHROME before !

Today's mods.. Added a 12v socket in the front of the dinette, and noticed there was some storage area to be recovered in that bench..
Socket.. ![]() Bench storage.. ![]() ![]() Oh yeah.. and I moved that little table mount thing to the back so it would make it easier to get in and out of the dinette on the street side. and while not a "mod" per se.. We found these two bins at wallyworld, one holds all the water stuff, the other all the electrical stuff, and they stack underneath. The larger blue bin is the Coleman stove, griddle, toast device and collapsible fire ring. ![]() |

Do you have a pic of the front wheel mod ? Would be interested in seeing that.
Thanks in advance ... MJ |

We have done the dual battery mod, added a mirror to the bath door, a white board to the entry wall, and are about to add 12v sockets in the dinette and bed frame walls.
But today I was bored and knocked out this little "device".. I have been wanting to build something like it for a while.. Not quite a trailer mod, but it's only use is with our camping trailers.. ![]() It plugs into the umbilical on the trailer, draws 12v from the trailer, and one switch turns on the running lights for camping ambiance, and the second switch turns on the emergency flashers, in case you break down and have to disconnect the TV for some reason.. |
