Outdoor shower replacement

Hi, I'm looking for info/pics or video to help with replacing outdoor shower on
2016 25' FB flying cloud. Like many other people I've wrestled with the cheap
Oem Set-up. I can't see how to access the plumbing from the inside.
Any help is appreciated.
Respectively,
SteverBeaver

In ours, JC had to remove the bathroom inner white balsa wood type trim to see the plumbing. It is most likely hidden behind the furniture where it lives, you'll have to figure out how to carefully remove it so you can reinstall when you're done.

Ours required that he reseal the wood edges back in place when he was done, but the plumbing itself wasn't that big a change.

On my 2017 International 25FB the shower plumbing can be accessed from the outside if the hole has smooth edges. The screws come out easily enough but the unit hangs on a tiny lip of aluminum. No way it would come loose. So, I had to access the back of the shower plumbing through the closet. Remove the wood trim; it is held in by a couple of screws. Then find some long arms to reach the plumbing. Easy off. Less easy on. Lefty had a difficult time starting the threads and righty couldn't reach it.

While you're in there check for leaks around your city water inlet.

Like many, I've replaced our OEM shower with the Dura Faucet. It took about 15 minutes to change them out. With the Dura Faucet, you'll need to find a place to store the shower head when not using, but that's a minor problem. When needed, just plug it in and you're all set. There are other threads on this, and if I remember, there is a video someone uploaded. May not suit your taste, but this is much better than the cheap OEM. Amazon link:

Thank you for all of your advice. As it turned out I wasn't able to find any access from the inside to the outside shower connections on my 2016 25'FCFB. But, I was able to remove the screws holding the shower storage box and gained access to the water connections by pulling it out. I have replaced the OEM with a new quick-connect faucet and will also change out the lock with a keyless finger-turn cylinder.
