No, I didn't add any yet, but early this AM I saw what appears to be the locations of the vertical studs on the left side. As soon as the sun came up a bit farther they disappeared. I snapped some shots and turned them into negatives to make them easier to see. Nothing showing on the right side. I thought this might be of some use to those who have mentioned putting ports in the bunk area ...

Thanks a bunch, Huron! 
I was trying to explain this to someone months ago but, didn't get around to taking pictures.  If one catches the morning dew or frost at just the right time, every wall stud reveals itself.
 
By the way, great window in the door mod!

The photos in a member's factory tour showed the unclad vertical studs were always adjacent to the holes cut out of the walls for windows, accesses, etc.

Here is the URL address:

The third photo nicely shows how the studs are placed.

There are good pics from a member's factory visit here, too.
