Everything looks great!!

We added some more electrical outlets in the Entertainment Center today- including the one mounted to the outer left side of the cabinet.

This will be great while traveling down the road because it is directly behind the passenger seat.

Other photos from today can be found on my blog.

Thank You- although I am not sure my DH always thinks it's fun!

Our 1999 Damon seems to have very little storage so we have decided to experiment.
Here is a photo one of the cabinets in the slide-

It isn't full depth because of the storage notch for the window coverings, so we decided to add a temporary shelf to see if it will help.

Here is a photo of part of the cabinet & shelf.
We will make a permanent shelf once we know this fits our needs.

Today DH thought he would take advantage of a dry weather day so he spent it working on the back-up camera. He completed getting the wiring up into the cabin of the RV and close to the final mounting location of the camera.

...and as usual...You can see more photos on the blog

We have just about finished the Entertainment Center Install. We did not have the builder add any holes for the wiring and electrical because it needed to be in place so that we knew where the holes and wiring would go.
The majority of these have been now added. Here is a photo of the main cabinet with some of the wiring and holes that were added. (The 2 holes that are on the back wall are finger holes so we can open the sliding doors when we need to. They were put in by the cabinet maker.)

I have posted a more in-depth pictorial on the blog.

How does your sub work inside the cabinet. Does it have a sound port cut into the cabinet on the left side? I would think you would need one.

dogpatch- this seems to work well if you have a surround system that you can set up with a special mic that you put where the normal seating area is. The system will adjust the settings for each sub and speaker based on what it picks up with the microphone.

I will admit that we have not run the new set-up yet this week, but I am not worried. We have set up a few other systems like this for many years.

(I am sorry for such a late response- but work and other Christmas stuff has kept me busy today.

That's how my Denon Amplifier works in my S&B. My only concern would be the base within the cabinet. It may end up being suppressed and if configured loud enough to hear, may rattle the doors. Just a thought that you may have to install some sort of screened port. This could be easily done on the left side behind the copilot seat to help the situation if an issue. Bass is non-directional.

The backup camera has now been installed-and it even has sound!

Thank You everyone at RVCams.com.

We recently got a sofa shipped to us- but it does have a few issues.
We are in the process of "tieing" it down - even though it comes with no lag bolts included in the shipped tie-down brackets...nor does it come with any "installation" instructions.
