My wife bought it but I'm not sure from where. Google or Amazon quick search of that product from my first picture will give you a few options though.

You should have just bought mine (still for sale).
It's all modded-up for you and ready to go. We are looking to upgrade to our Full-Time 5'er.

Magnet catches for outside storage doors....best mod ever....followed by puck lights in cabinets and wired lights in front and rear storage areas. TV in front bedroom is nice and TV in outdoor kitchen is nice. Bigger, better outside fridge is nice. Swapping out that funky grill for burner stove was an improvement but I don’t use it much. And dimmer switches replacing most of the toggle switches is nice but was a huge pain to swap the one for the couch area.

Oh, I tried talking the wife into a used one but she HAD to have the new Modern Farmhouse interior or she wasn't doing it. If she ain't happy and all that...

On the magnet catches, did you just remove the clips and install there?

I'm planning on putting the absolute largest TV possible outside with a soundbar mounted under the ledge!

I mostly use a 17" Blackstone griddle. Was thinking of removing the grill and just installing a pullout shelf instead to put the griddle. Will have to see about room.

What was difficult about the couch switch?

Thanks for all the info!

On the magnets, it won’t work using the existing latch locations. I mounted mine in new locations. You can use a really strong adhesive or screws with sealant.

On the dimmer switch, you need both the positive and negative wires to make the dimmer work. The switch next to the couch just had the positive wire so I had to find and fish through the negative wire. I ended up pulling down some trim to make that work. If I did it again I think I could avoid some of the hassles.

On the outdoor kitchen, go too big and you won’t be able to use the sink without hitting the TV. I think I did 39” on a swing mount. I put the tv under the master bed when we travel.

Oh yeah, on the TV, it will not hang below the ledge.

Thanks for the info, again!

Could you tell me which burner stove you used? That grill is the most worthless piece of junk ever invented!

Thanks in advance!

Countertop Extension

So the wife kept complaining about no counterspace on our 2018 295 BHDS. Had some time this spring before our first camping trip to come up with this solution. Haven't gone for a trip yet so hopefully it doesn't fall off!

I replaced my analog stat with the Coleman Mach digital one and it's great. I don't think I paid $72 for mine, I thought it was in the neighborhood of $50-55.

I paid $47 for mine. I see the amazon price has really spiked. Shop around. Well worth doing!

Yes I think the Amazon price did spike because this winter I thought I saw it for about 55 bucks and after camping this weekend in Bourne I finally decided that I needed to get it and noticed the price was up there....I will look around and thanks for the feedback..Mike

It works great, but I wish it were backlit so I could see what I am setting it to in the middle of the night if needed

I thought that too. I did a mod to take care of it one day when I needed to have a little diversion.
