   I got my parts shipment this weekend.  I ordered the Flexco 24" wide double steps that capricorn_62 mentioned.  I had to enlarge one of the holes in the mounting bracket  just a bit like they did but was a very easy install.  The difference getting in and out of the trailer is awesome!  The second mod was to the television mount.  I went the same route as commander203  and just added the tilt wall mount to the front of the existing plate. I did cut off about 1 inch of the existing mount and attached the wall mount a little bit lower. That way, the plate doesn't stick up behind the top of the television. This improved the viewing angle so much that I couldn't believe it.Here's a couple of pictures of the mods.
