How is visibility through the rear view mirror. I really want to do this but I like being able to see the bikes on the rack while driving.
You can somewhat see. But it’s hard for me to tell cause my batteries are blocking my view.

Added these today. Was looking for a cheaper option to use tent awning poles to hold the doors open.

They work well. We have been using them for the last 3 weeks but @Buhlockaye printed some special pieces so the bar does hit the GFC

I have a ton of little rubber end caps that I’ll just stick on the end of my rods. Should work well enough!

Did the window mod. This is what I used:
And the tarp clips:

those anchors are pretty cool and the price is even better than something I could print lol
Super neat! What PSI pump did you go with? Liking the pressure?
Glad you liked em! Work great and the price is even better!
@nat3060 @Buhlockaye killed it with the idea of using the OVS mounts for the awning/window mounts! Much cheaper option for sure. OVS probably wondering why they selling everything lol

I was thinking that same thing when I ordered mine.

Just be careful of placing the rod in the mount. @Buhlockaye actually 3D printed a mount for his so the pole doesn’t rub/hit the extrusion. You might have to modify the end of the tent pole or just be careful sticking them/moving them around once deployed.
Yeah there’s a couple of options to mitigate that. I am careful putting them in, you could also stick a piece foam tape or rubber tape in behind there on the GFC itself.

That’s what I did. I had some left overs from the tailgate seal which is a thick rubber. I cut out pieces and used the double sided tape that’s on it to stick it in the rail where the rod hits.
Dosent the heat come off the top of the water heater? Is it not enoughto cause issue?
I put a video up on tiktok with a quick tour of the GFC

Lol, this randomly popped up on my tiktok feed, which I rarely check. Great walk-through, but it was odd hearing your voice after reading your posts for so long. I’ve stolen many of your ideas as I build out my own camper, and yours is one of the ones I show folks when they want to understand what GFC’s are all about. Keep up the great work, really inspiring.

I had to try hard to mask the Cajun accent so people could understand me

Don’t ever hide it - it’s an awesome accent and is part of who you are. And, it gives you and your truck character.

really awesome. I’m getting so many ideas from you. One question. How is visibility out the back window with the full molle panel?
