Look for the thread a few down on the first page.. "6x14 Toyhauler" I posted a few pictures. I added a full bathroom with holding tanks. I've pretty much read this entire forum and there are only a couple with full bathrooms Including mine lol. Shower and toilet doesn't seem to be high on the list. Most people on here seem to camp places with bathhouses and shorepower.
I don't have a kitchen cause we cook outside on the fire, Besides space was tight with me needing 10' for a Garage.
GL with your project!

The best thing to do is search on Ebay for RV related items, you will find many companies that sell all types of things used on RV's Boats ect.
I bought a portable camp type toilet off Ebay like they sell at walmart but it was battery operated all you have to do is press the button and it would fill the bowl you pull a lever and it flushes,it holds 2.12 gallons of water about 15 flushes but it holds 5-gallons in the bottom so you can fill it again so you get 30 flushes before you have to empty it I haven't used it yet just tested it with a water hose.
it is really a well thought out device it seperates the top from the bottom so you can empty it.
I am adding a shower but it is only 2ft wide by 2.1/2 deep just big enough to get in and have the portable toilet.
I am useing the v nose part of the camper where I will have the 16 gallon water tank battery and extra storage space.
the back wall of my shower will be a hidden door where I can go through and get to that area.
I bought a 12 volt water pump that will split and feed the sink and shower.
I bought a 110 volt water heater off ebay again that is made for a sink,the one I got didn't heat the water so they are sending another one,I hope it works?
