Mounted the rear LED lights and also got the rear upper camera mounted. Going down to the shop when it gets dark and check them out. They put out 1800+ lumens each. Like 18 watts. And got some painting started.

We will see. My plan is to use 4 down the side under the Awning if the test goes well. Going to try a dimmer on the Awning lights. Don't want the operating room look ?

White is right !
Here are the shots from tonight's test. What do you think ?
And from the cab it would be a big help backing up. I didn't have the camera's working to see how much it would help them ?

its nice ! I agree when backing at night it would be really nice.
Ive been considering adding some to our coach so that i can use them to check on the trailer or toad when towing / running at night.

They would be a tremendous help for backing up at night. Once the cameras are operational you should be in good shape for night time operations.

Some air install. I have been having a valve in the dryer system stick. Just old. Like me !
So I installed a new dryer today.
Also got the AV cables to the front of the cab. Need about 6' more on the longest run. Going to look-into building one ?
Also moved the cab pump to the driver's side. Going to go with a stack and it was in the way.

Most of the space is taken. But the gap at the cab and box just seamed right and easy to get to ! Oh, the old cooler/dryer was mounted to a stand back their and I could reuse the hose system .
On a side note the water heater is going under the passthrough. Will start that when the heater gets here.

The end of a long week. Some more wiring and the carnage on the floor.
Going to switch to some pluming next ? And some painting on the rear uprights/door frame.

Water heater got here today. Its a tank-less for LP. Test fit went well. Don't think it could be run with the truck underway,may not draft right ? So I will only use it parked. Should have good assess to fittings and drain's.

I strongly recommend you lengthen the vent on it. You are going to have draft issues and you will be getting the wall of the camper real hot.
