Coat Rack on back wall of Suncruiser

I am wondering if I can safely install a Coat Rack like one with hook on a board that screws into the wall.

I am wanting to screw it into the back wall of our Suncruiser to the left or right of the mirror that is on the bak wall or possibly above the mirror.

We have a 33V and I'm not sure what is behind that wall. I can hear some solid work but that might be the metal frame.

Anyone have pictures or knowledge of this?

Thanks.

I installed two racks, one on the back wall to the right of the mirror, and it works great. However, IMHO, you might want to explore carefully without a power drill; It is mostly empty space, but there are auto light wires, and some ducting for the heat pump. Just use a phillips screwdriver, or an "ice pick" type tool to PUSH or "hand drill" through the interior wall. Then I used plastic mollies. It works great! Hope this helps

We have an 07 33V, the back wall itself doesnt have anything (wires or ductwork) embedded in it. The vents and tailights are routed outside. You can see them between the cap and the actual back wall if you look up there.

The wall does have some steel (aluminum?) cross members in it. So when mounting anything you will either be drilling into luan over foam or luan over metal.

When in doubt, use adhesive. Or suction cup style hangers on the mirror

Have fun!

Thanks cbeierl and the others as well.
Good tips, this will get me on my way.
I'm not sure about the suction cups on the mirror. If the mirror is glued on it might come down.
I will call Winnie, thanks again.
