First, let me assure everyone that I attempted to find the outdoor shower mod thread via the "search" function but to no avail. I think it was furpod that posted an excellent thread on the installation of an outdoor shower cabinet. It included some offsets that produced a safe cutting area on the slide of, (I think) a 177. I'd sure like to review that thread before I start cutting! Thanks if you can help.  Bob C.

You might want to consider installing a spray port instead. Then you would not need to cut into your RPod, just drill a 2 3/4" hole. It would likely be just as useful.

My dog don't like cold showers... neither does the Mrs.. Just be careful of the soft propane line, it may run in that area. I just pulled the two panels out so I could see what was what under there before I started. I reinforced the area with a plywood backer for better screw grip. ------------- |

The inside shower is for the Mrs. Amazon had spray ports that have both hot and cold that are smaller than the shower port since it does not need to store the hose inside. That means a smaller opening can be cut.

Thanks furpod. That's very helpful. And thanks for the alternate thoughts, SH, but I already have the same cabinet as furpod shows in his pix. ------------- Bob and Joyce Jennifer and Baxter, the Campin' Cocker Spaniels RP 177 "Key Pod" Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT / Z71 |
