For what purpose? Are you talking about the internal 12V power or the harness going to the TV? Internal 12V power can be tapped from spare fuse slots on the fuse panel.

11. Water filter.
My old tent trailer came with an inline water filter. I just bought one yesterday and will install it on the kitchen faucet for drinking water.

Always true.  I've had my current camper almost 3 years now and I spent all day Wednesday doing mods and fixing things.

True! I just got the set of double steps I ordered to replace the single step that came with the R-Pod. I will be installing them tomorrow as soon as I finish making a couple of shims. The mounting brackets for the original steps are about 1/2" wider than the new steps. I'll show them in my mods when I am done.

Both of which always seem to be insufficient. However, not everything needs to be done at once. It has taken me several months to complete the projects detailed in my mods.

It's pretty simple to add 12V sockets and USB ports wherever you want them.  We've added 2 sockets to the galley, a combination 12V/USB socket near the AC socket by the bed and plan to add a 12 V socket to the outside.
