Topic: Another Door Window Install Posted: 24 May 2016 at 9:37am |
I purchased Mainstays (Wal-Mart) 11 in - 19 in Swivel End Sash Rods. I will mount them above and below the window. I disassembled the "quilt" that came with the R-Pod as I could not get matching fabric for our 2016 R-Pod from Forest River. They said that our interior was no longer being made and that they couldn't get more fabric. Since the quilt was made with harmonizing fabrics, I will use that to make curtains for the door and replacement curtains for the kitchen window. I had already modified that to remove the plastic track and put in proper curtain rods. See my mods for details.

I was wondering the same thing. I am very interested in this mod, but absolutely need a blind for nighttime. I searched online and found a lot of RV blinds but none that seemed to fit this particular window size. Anyone added a blind?

I ordered a window today for our 179. Did you put any caulking around the opening before setting the window frame in place?

I don't see a hole drilled to start the cut. How did you do that?

John,
Yeah, I think it was a 2.8 mm blade (Makita or Bosch). I got a drawer full. I just got these new 3M ear muffs to replace my old broken HD cheapies. They are great! Driving the Gravely brush hog all morning was a pleasure...on my ears. The rest of my body is a total wreck! fred
