Here is the location of 1200w inverter & additional USB ports…I am thinking to add simple USB led lights inside of the pop up tent in near future…that is why USB ports are inside of tiny cabinet!

Very nice build-out. Looks Very livable for bad or buggy weather. Am curious what your sink drains to?

Sink drains to “in between” the cab & bed. There is a 1” or 1.5” oval shaped access hole located on both sides of the bed. (For 22’ Frontier), but I also checked other trucks and they have those holes as well! I have a drain plug, so unwanted critters will not come in from the drain!
Here is at night with all lights on.
All LED lights are dimmable and with100ah LiFePO4 battery, they can be on all night and won’t drain much of battery.

Holy crap this is a shortbed!??! It looks like an apartment. Super jealous of the bedsize compared to a tacoma. Heard Frontiers have one of the widest/biggest beds.
Edit - how are you liking that 21QT iceco? Thought about getting those as well since they are so low profile. You could get (2) and end up with a fridge and freezer with less space used than (1) giant one.
2nd edit - showed my SO and we are just so impressed with your work. It looks freaking amazing for someone who did it from scratch. Really functional too. Really impressed, great work. Going to try to do something similar to you. We LOVE your drivers side seat/storage.

Please let me know if you need any help with your build! BTW, the curvature in front of the bench is also a small storage as well! Everything can be used as the storage.
The next is to build a cabinets to go into the corners on top of the counter! I have to fit them into the triangle frames…it will be very interesting!

Bigger Iceco fridge and new 12v plug
Bungees to hold paper towel and maybe wet towels
Scrapped the idea to build triangle top cabinets, then placed “backpack”…better idea as we need to bring backpack anyways and to keep all of the small items.

This is such a sweet build, appreciate you posting the inspiration! My downstairs is taken up for 2 kids to sleep in so I’m always jealous when I see these mansions, lol, some day…

I like that Iceco fridge. They make a great product…perhaps the best value in overlanding fridges.

which GFC model did you get? Is it just a Toyota Tacoma one? I didn’t think they made GFC for the Frontier yet.
Thanks!
New under cabinet lights. The original version led light strip was too cheaply made and replaced it with the same light strip (much better quality) that I used in the tent.
My original thought was to have red, blue, yellow to not to attract bugs at night…aaand with remote control…then I lost the remote plus not as quality made…oh well.

Fantastic interior build!
Really cool rig. Love how you built the interior but left a lot of floor space.
Hi! I love the build! I too have a Frontier (2020) and have some questions:
1 - Did GFC require that you remove the side utilitracks? I noticed you have the far end of the bed still in tact…wasn’t sure if they were all covered by your build.
2 - Can you share more about your electric setup? I still cannot wrap my mind around how people do what they do for electric…
3 - What did you use to mount the DIY camp shower to the GFC.
Thanks!
- Yes
- 12v set up is pretty easy.
Positive wire go through to shunt to DC to DC & Solar charger, then another shunt to battery. Battery to inverter or plugs go through 12v fuse box similar to that one you find for your car. Shunts are (watt divided by voltage = amp), so my set up is 400w divided by 12v and 40amp.
All purchase through Amazon! - See attached

I know this is an old thread. I wanted to know how the clearance was for the GFC and the shark fin antenna on the cab?
