Fiberglass RV member Roy Tarr asked me to help him retrieve and post some photos of his Casita improvements. I'll upload them here, and let Roy provide the commentary at a later time.

Roy, you've been a busy happy camper!

Just post your comments and explanations in a new reply below, noting the picture numbers.

You can't edit my original posts ... so just add your comments in the form of a new reply!

Wow, Roy. Love your lights. Especially the one by the door, so you can turn on the outside from inside.
:chin
Was it difficult to install?

Charles, On second look, I think the picture labeled “storage compartment” is really the lower fridge access.

:wave Roy, on your Casita do you light the fridge from outside, through this compartment door? (Looks a bit like the one on our '89, although I can tell yours is newer.)

Man, I don't blame you for wanting a light in there, if I'm right about what I'm looking at.

I loved them all, but my fav is the boat sets, number 13. Did that to my canoe about 20 years ago and every one thought crazy. now they sell them for just that reason. This is a good idea.

I am going to put an inside switch for the door light and replace the door
frosted window with a clear one so we can see who is at the door with out
opeing it first. I am also going to add two lights one at the left side and
at the back with inside switches. I will do this after the warranty has passed
so that Casita can't say that I voided the warranty.
