Busy winter working on Pod. Micro/conv died and took too long for campingworld to rreplace. Did it myself with a unit on sale at thier store. Fit perfect. Then i changed out the plastic sink for a stainless steal with metal faucet that was a complete kit from Lowes for 69$. No other parts needed. Just needed to trim the opening some and the clips fit perfect. freat water pressure from the pods pump. Then i needed a single leg table as its hard on your feet with that table that came with the pod. Only 2 in the pod so not needing the dinette bed ever. but the orignal table is still avail to use.Took the larger storage pockets out of bath and attahed to slideout wall. better for mags and such. Finally put in a full carpet in the pod. Makes the floor much warmer. Used deli paper for a templete of the floor then transfered to a piece of 60$ indoor/outdoor carpet from Lowes. Heres my pics. sorry but i tried to add pics and cant . maybe another time. toobad ------------- 2016 179pod--BETTY 2010 nissan frontier Sean and Doug Butchie the morkie touring the west |

Gee, it sounds like you have the same setup I do. 2016 RP179 and 2010 Nissan Frontier.  I've just finished a dinette modification, replacing the folding table mechanism with two posts and redoing the cushions to make a better bed. Pictures are in my mods (link in signature). As for posting pictures, a lot of people use postimage.org to upload pictures and then use the link provided in the message to show the image here. For that you need the advanced editor (two boxes with arrow in the icons above). The tree icon is for images. The link gets pasted there. For me, I host my own images as I run a very simple and very restricted web server on my home computer (Linux). That with a dynamic DNS service lets me post a link to that picture so I can paste the link and have the picture(s) show. I decided to do that when the forum changed and no longer allowed upload of pictures. For formatting of pictures, size is important. Scaling them to 800x600 gives a picture that fits the screen well and still is detailed enough. For that, I use the open-source GIMP program. ------------- StephenH Happy is the man that findeth wisdom,... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7712 - ouR escaPOD mods Former RPod 179 Current Cherokee Grey Wolf 24 JS |
