I love my camper! It’s quite easily the best investment I’ve done in equipment. It has transformed how we travel and recreate.

What lights did you end up going with?
I used these
I have had them for about three years now and still going strong. I plan on buying another set for the actual tent

What’s the front bumper mod you have? Is that a hidden winch? Hard to find good options for the 2nd gen. Nice build!
Thank you! No winch, just painted the center of the bumper black and added a light bar in the stock oem opening. Distant future I will go with a c4 bumper.

thank you! Yeah, they are dope. I didn’t like the look of the caliraised ones.
It the Waterport Day Tank, 3.85 gallons. Self pressurizes when filled up with the hose. Additionally, it has a schrader valve so you can pressurize it up to 40 psi.

Visibility was very limited, especially when backing up my small trailer. This little amazon camera has been a great solution. Paired it with my Sony in dash car stereo.

do you like it up high like that? I have a wireless camera that Ill be installing soon, and replacing my rear view mirror with a screen. Wish i had enough electrical knowledge to be able to turn it on whenever I wanted…
But anyways, I was thinking about putting the camera in the same place that I have my OEM camera, in the middle of the swingout. that way I wouldnt have to drill into the GFC.

It is a wide angle camera and the location is perfect, my main use for it is backing up a trailer and this gives me a good view. I still have my OEM one in the tailgate (activates when I go into reverse) which I use when I need to see things closer to the rear bumper. I did install this new camera so that I can turn it on whenever I want from my existing head unit and the camera came with the instructions on how to do that. I am not savvy with electricals but tons of research, YouTube and forums has gotten me by. I guess it all comes down to how you plan on using it. Good luck on your mod

Looks clean and awesome! What do you have the power sourced too? Main battery or house?

Thank you! For now, main battery. Once I get to my campsite, I plug the fridge to my jackery. Future plans is a dual battery to run the fridge, lights and my usb plugs. Jackery would then just become an emergency power source.
