I just got thru upgrading the television in my 179 to a 24" Samsung smart TV.  The way I got it to fit is I took the old TV down and unscrewed the plate that held it to the wall.  Then I fabricated a new plate for the wall.  What I did was to use some metal stock that was the same thickness and made a new plate that was twice as long and then bolted the old plate to the new one and screwed it back into the same holes.

not yet but I'll will get one

I made a rack for the back of the Pod, full across and 24 inches deep,  Rain gutter square down spout fits inside the frame for side support.  I cut straight grain 2x4 down to fit inside the down spout before stuffing them 24 inches inside the frame.  Removed the screws for the levelers before inserting the supports and then reinstalled the screws to hold the supports inside.  I extended the spare tire holder to   support the middle of my rack.  Cut off the tire bracket and welded a 2 inch receiver vertical on top of the tire rack after pounding it down over the square tube about 1 1/2.  Thus my Allen 4 bike rack slides in the 2 inch receiver after removing the part that needed for car use.  When we camp and want to take the bikes on a day trip, I install the lower part (that I removed to use it on the trailer) on my tow vehicle, attach the bike rack as intended by manufacture and off we go.

Has anyone experienced trouble with the bottom bunk in the 182G?  I had to add reinforcement to the brace boards. The ones just screwed into the wall without any additional support pulled out!  I'm waiting to see if the top bunk falls in! (I'm barely 110#so don't go there!)  While I was cutting boards I put a few under the dinette storage areas too!  I'm not talented enough for any other modifications!
