4X Macerator Warning Sign Stickers for Uniflo Saniflo Warning Signs Sticker | eBay
Does anyone know where I can get one of these, this seller won't ship to USA, I think it would be a good idea to stick one of these by the toilet. We have a lot of friends who don't know how RV toilets work and especially ones with a macerator like our 29.2, even though I remind them I'd hate for someone to forget and put something down there they shouldn't.

This will require a brake controller. Does anyone know if the 2012 ACE is pre-wired for this? Any surprises I should watch for?

Chuck -- I was crawling around under the rear end of my ACE 30.1 this past weekend and I noticed there was a label on an unattached black wire. The label said "Elec Brake." Unfortunately I don't have a wiring diagram, but I get if you call Thor they'll send you one.

Make your own. I remember seeing one in a boat that said "Don't put anything into the toilet unless you've eaten it first".

It is a mistake to allow any mechanical object to realize that you are in a hurry.

I think my next mod will be to replace the interior bulbs with LED. There seems to be a lot of different styles available on ebay, any guidance here?
thanks!

I ordered the surface mounted LEDS for about 3 bucks each as shown in post #23,but also ordered some of these for $5. BA15S 1156 1141 24 SMD 5050 LED Warm White Car Internal light bulb 12V
Both are working fine.

I only used the 24 LED bulbs in every one of the storage compartments and for the porch light, and under the cabinet over the bed. They are plenty bright enough in those places. I used the SMDs to light up the living areas. The SMDs are MUCH brighter than the originals in my opinion, and I would have put them everywhere if I had bought enough of them the first time around.
I bought ten of the 24 LED version bulbs for the storage areas partly just to see how they compared, even though they cost more, and I wasn't that concerned about the brightness. I was also thinking that the bulb type might be better in the storage ares vs the SMDs since they project light 360 degrees instead of just downward, but I am not sure if I can really see the difference in that regard.
Bottom line, if I were redoing another coach I would go with the SMDs for the cost savings.

It seems our ACE 29.2 came with every option except the TV in the bedroom. I want to add one but I can't seem to find how they would have mounted to the wall, I can't find a solid are to mount the bracket. Is there any way one of you who has a tv in the bedroom could post a pic of where they placed the bracket? Or give me a measurement of where its screwed in?

I had the dealer put it in and I had to have them show me three mounting brackets until they got it right. The one that comes from Thor is a fixed triangle bracket that fits in the corner but was to small for my tv. The first two they purchased would not let the slide door open all the way when the tv was mounted. The best option for us was a bracket that was a 360 degree swing that had a quick release for the tv to come off while we traveled. I don't have a pic right now do to it is at CW getting the annual service.

Will post up a picture later today for you, but I just used a standard wall mount in the corner, so far it has worked fine.

Thought I'd report that we found the brake light wire near the back bumper. It was up inside a wiring bundle and we had to fish it out. When we did it was lableled and everything. No extension was needed. We changed out the 4-pin with a 6-pin plug, installed the controller and it's ready to go.
What settings do you use on your Prodigy P3 when pulling a vehicle? We'll be pulling an Ultima on our tow dolly w/brakes. Haven't taken it out yet and was wondering if you have a recommendation on initial setting.
