Got a chrome wire basket. Made for the bathroom, but I am using it in the dump bay,

It will hold all the misc stuff that floats around.

Where should I start looking for a mirror for a 2007 fleetwwod flair 33r? The pins holding the other mirror do not look like bolts. I assume they are a pound in type of insert.
#1 never go back to the motorhome manufacturer for parts, if you can help it. They will charge you retail plus. They are not in the parts business and will make you pay for their time and trouble.
look under the arm and you will probably see the name Velvac. Go online and go to Velvac's site. There are screws under the trim buttons. just remove the trim buttons and remove the screws.

I think most of the Velvac screws are 3/16 allens.

Bought one of the under the counter drawers to put under my bath cabinet to hold misc small items.
Also bought a fold up broom with a dustpan from WalMart RV section. It extends to a full broom! Neat!

New compressor and two squirrel cages for the dual compressor basement AC/heat pump, with $69 worth of diesel for dessert as we ended the round trip to the service location.

A MaxxAir fan for the water closet. The one with remote control. I'm working my way to the epitome of luxury. The remote comes in handy as there is no magazine rack in the water closet.

A sturdy window scrubber/squeegee from ACE is the place, like the one's in the gas stations between the pumps. I had an old mop handle and whittled the end down and put the head on that with a couple of screws for extra measure. Now I've got something I can reach the top of the windshield with, without a step stool.

Just purchased an aluminum cargo carrier from Amazon by UWS. It's VERY light and seems sturday (500 lb rating) and it looks great!
I'm also getting a Rubbermaid Actionpacker heavy duty plastic crate from Walmart. It's lockable and has a hinged top that can be waterproofed.
Oh yeah, I also ordered some magnetic scrabble tiles from Amazon. I'm designing a scrabble board to print on vinyl and attach to sheet metal so we can play on the road.
I'll have to post a picture of that one when I finish it.

A get well soon card in care of our dealer! Ha!
Seriously, We did by a Melita stove top coffee maker in case the Kuerig dies.
Next on the list a Flo-jet, then a Jeep Wrangler.

Haven't gotten it yet, but I'm gonna get a little tray to sit on the console to the left of the drivers seat. There's not enough room on the console with the bubble levels and the jack controls for me to sit my sunglasses or smokes and a lighter.
