Jayco 165 Mods

Started this thread and was unsure how to post pics, so I called it " test" figuring I would change it to Jayco 165 mods when done, but I cannot figure out how to change the thread name, oh well.

We plan to spend a couple of months at a time in our jayco 165 when we retire in a year or so. Each time we go out we think about what changes we would like if we are going to be staying in it for longer lengths of time. Here is what we have done so far:

Moved the table to have more working room. It can still be put in original location

I had meant for the title of the thread to be Jayco 165 Mods. If someone could change it for me that would be great

Great mods.
We have done most of the same.
I like moving the table and outside speakers. We haven't done those.

Great job.

I particularly like the front shelve. Also the table option is neat.
Thanks for ideas.
