You and me both. I am doing things like a handy-man that I have never attempted before. I try not to focus on "how long it takes me" either...it takes what it takes. Right now, this water leak is kicking my butt. Congrats on your stair fix, jannnda.

That is my attitude “it takes however long it takes “. The stairs were way over my head. Don’t care, they didn’t work... how much worse can I make it?

Exactly. I am still trying to tackle that water leak.

I can now move the Progressive Industries EMS HW50C to the completed column.

Rear Trac bar is due in mid-next week...I can't wait to get that one done.

We'll be starting our first long RV trip in a few weeks & I want to take my time & enjoy life.

I'll be taking Interstates & Towing. I want all the help I can get to keep from getting pushed when the Big Trucks come flying by me.

installing this friday, where did you put the 'remote'?

I took the cover off the electrical, only a couple of screws, and ran the wires up. There was room at the top.

There several ways to do the install. Yes you can cut the main romex coming into the mh

Lots of videos on YouTube and on progressives website. Fairly easy install

Just make sure ALL power is off to the mh

This is an amazing thread. As a new 2020 Windsport 35M owner it's already been a great resource!

We haven't been on a trip yet, for 2 weeks I've been busy getting road ready.

I've done:
- soap dispensers
- toilet paper holder fix
- glove dispenser in wet bay
- Gila tint on passenger and driver windows
- pull handle in screen door
- scotch guard furniture
- fire stick add-on to HDMI distribution
- Maxx air covers on bathroom vents
- foam topper on bed
- storage bins for compartments
- wet bay accessories with quick connects

On short todo list:
- steering stabalizer
- CHF
- checking and sealing cold air out to storage/ under carriage
- 110v inside overhead cabinet in living room for printer
- make cutting board sink cover
- cushion and lumbar support (Jan really hates the captain chair)
- passenger cup holder
- hitch bike rack

gonna need more info on the red texted ones please!



i HIGHLY suggest the THULE bike rack, and they offer an extension to get 4 bikes up there. i just did the CHF, super easy...def need a bottle jack to hike the bar up, and doing the roadmaster steering stabilizer this morning.


i am actively looking for a 'yeti' sized cup holder for driver area if anyone has any insight please!

I'll do these one at a time.

Soap dispensers in both bathroom counters.

I didn't want to get all the wood shavings all over the place so I used a Gatorade bottle to contain.

Got the dispensers at Lowe's.

Easy install. Make sure you put the bottle under counter to make sure nothing will instruct it before you drill holes.

Used a 1 inch auger drill bit

[bojanlora]

For the shower I actually screwed it in. Didn't really want to mess with 3m tape. I siliconed the area.

Notice that I placed it on the ridge for added support. Used stainless 1/2 inch pan head screws.

Glove dispenser in wet bay

Harbor freight

You have to remove a screw from a panel covering tank, drill a hole to put screw from the back and use nuts to secure holder

[bojanlora]

Gila film

Bought at Lowe's

Use a spray bottle with water and dawn liquid (enough to feel slightly slippery)

Hopefully it will cut glare that makes viewing mirror hard.

Looking at adding a 32 inch pull down solar shade. Can't go full 48 inch because of bed.

[bojanlora]

Oh yeah, I'm going to Scotch guard the awnings before I use them (expose to sun)
