Nice job!

Nice job!

It is also removable so I need to buy the other part of the mount so I can mount it outside on the side of the trailer where the connections are..

Looks great.

Really cool. Nice u have connections outside. They put mine on.

What is the model number of the Thermo.

I looked for a 12V TV also, could not find one to fit the bedroom so I just hooked up a 140W inverter plugged in the TV+DVR and works fine.

It was a Honeywell RTH111B Non-Programmable Thermostat I bought from Wal-mart. I also added the switch for the fan high speed.

Nice job, what kind of mount did you use for the TV. Did you find solid enough to screw into?

I found the mount online from Home Depot was $26 from a company called level mount. The wall it is on was made for a TV but did not use their area found stud by removing plug an measureing from side wall that wall was over 3" wide I used the 3" screws that came with the mount into stud and it is solid! The mount is made so you can remove TV so I went to their website and ordered another wall bracket to mount outside by the wiring under the awing.

Thanks

Thank you. There are 2 models that look a like. They are NONP also. One is 50 and One is 20. 20 is my spead. Need to do some research but I may use TC's method. We do not use the fan so I may run the High Fan through the fan switch.

I was about to ask... how did you mount that to the wall? Love to do that in my 31QBH. We're still lugging a regular small tube TV which then cramps the bedroom once the wall table is down for the TV.

Sorry... didn't see the pic of the mount until later... But as far as mounting, given the weight of the TV, I follow you on how you mounted it, but what of studs? Sorry for the dumb question but what are the studs in our Wildcats? I thought they were aluminum studs which would be a tad flimsy, but are they in fact real 2X4's?

I think that interior walls are wood studded 3X1-1/2 I think. where I put the tv is the wall to the toilet area also it was made for a tv to go on that paticular wall so they added additional bracing. If you mount on an exteirior wall I would try to find the alluminum stud to attach to. I also remove tv and set on bed for traveling. On my old fifth wheel I made a corner bracket and it had screws into the corner stud of a cabinet so the screws were into it from two different directions I mean that thing was solid the tv rode on it al the time and it was the old tube tv real Heavy!!

The floor registers. Were they found at like LOWES?

On my 313RE I screwed the base of a 24" flat panel onto the top of that corner cabinet, where the TV outlet is. Works great...survived the 7500 mile trip with ease.

IMHO should have put the switch in the wall as I did. Anyway how is that Thermo working. I find mine works great on heater but the AC needs help. Thinking about putting in a Hunter this winter.
