Good idea. Need a bright orange noodle for the corner of the vent hood, also. I have cracked my head twice on it in 2 days!

2 vinyl graphics of our name, the Honys, one on the propane cover, one on the door. Those rivets sure made it easy to center the signs.

That is one solution, I was surprised to find this storage box under my 1993 34' Limited, which goes all the way across the trailer and is perfect to store fishing rods. Someone was thinking...

Flying Cloud Tire Cover
We found a nice used grey tire cover at a yard sale for $5. We painted a design to describe our 1958 Airstream.

It's more than likely an outdoor vinyl. It would be like a window decal but can be put on any flat area. I made some decals for our center hubs.

The adhesive is on the back of the letters. From the sign shop to where they will be installed there is a wax paper backing on both sides (they laid around the house on a shelf for 6 months). You peel the paper off the back, set them in place, squeegee them flat to remove air bubbles, then pull the paper off the top. The rivets help to get them level and square.

Coat Rack
I screwed these shed antlers into the side of the cabinet over the foot of my bed to make a coat rack.
The 12 volt fan is priceless for those warm boondocking nights.

Rockler magnets and cups to replace the plastic window shade hold-downs.

Indeed they are. They slide back in to save on precious space when not being used.
