Very nice install :thumbsup:

I like the 12 volt electrical panel and the 120 volt outlets.

I take it the outlets are the end of your GFI cable?

Can you tell us where you found the switch panel and 12V monitor. They look really pro and I am just in the process of wiring my trailer. Nice work!

by **kickintail** » Thu Apr 28, 2011 10:16 pm

the switch panel is from west marine and the 12 volt monitor was purchased from amazon

Sorry, but do you have a product number for it? I am looking at the West Marine site and can't find it.

Nevermind about the panel, I found it finally.

Do you have a link for the 12V tester? Thanks!

Chester,

On the subject of the Suncast overhead storage cabinets, do they have a door closure retention system (snap-closure, latch, etc.)? They look exactly like what I want but am wondering if I'll have to add Velcro straps external to keep them closed (so stuff won't come tumbling out during travel). Not a big deal to add Velcro straps but am curious if I'll need to?

Thank you for sharing a lot of great ideas you came up with! :thumbsup:

I like your white fiberglass wall paneling and may use that idea too. Right now I have only the bare plywood on my walls and need some sort of paneling to go over it. I too used Luan paneling for my roof.

Chester,

Thank you for the follow-up! I ordered a pair of the Suncast overhead cabinets from Amazon. One is shipping right away and the other will follow at some point, but I did get the free shipping. If they are not intuitively simple to install overhead I may be asking for your help as to how you installed yours.

Again, thank you for posting your build thread. I am picking some great items from your build experience, and that's what this forum is all about.

Best regards,
Don

don these cabinets are very easy to put together and install it looks like you have a flat front to attach them too so it will be an easy install. i am glad that people can get some use out of my build.

Chester,

What is the material you used to panel your walls and where did you get it from?

Thanks!

Don
