I have been going through my coach and tweaking a few items. I did get the Winegard In Motion Mission installed with two DISH HD receivers. The bedroom one is attached via a wireless HD kit. Works pretty slick. I did address the refrigerator retention screw with a spring mounted retainer, instead. Much easier to manage.
I did get a Cummins label for the rear. I think it fits nicely and is a domed, sealed emblem so it will not fade. It is very similar to the Freightliner emblems in format and size.

I will post up links on both. The retainer is a carb spring, a PCV connector and two rubber PCV vacuum caps. I will link how to build. It is very easy.

Palazzo Add ons and the Body Block Shield
Just had this installed at Summit Products in Altoona, Iowa.
Shield will repel stone chips, bugs and road hazards.
Hope that I never have to try it out.
Have also added a Steer-Safe stabilizer to the coach.
Waiting on MCD blinds for the cockpit which are due today. I will send pics when installed.

Looks good! How do you access the front door to the generator?

Shield is hinged so it folds toward you to access generator.
Shield can be removed by unscrewing 6 screws on top and on bottom.
So far I have had no problems with it. No wind issues from it.

The unit you need is a DC-04S It cost $410.00 plus shipping.You can call at 800-845-5504 to order.
My mechanic had one on his motor home years ago and liked it.
I just drove the Palazzo for the first time with the Steer Safe on it last week to Iowa to get my shield put on. We had crosswinds of 30-40 mph. It helped but the drive was no fun in that wind. I have noticed that passing semis don't blow me like they had previously. I actually can steer with one hand if I want to, I usually don't tho.

Just did this... really, where did they think we would put our garbage. Had to rearrange some pipes and trim the can a bit... but I think this should be a standard. I might put an additional latch if it opens up while driving... we'll see.
