Nice job!

Did you put some latches on the doors to keep them closed on tight turns?

Thanks!!

Fantastic. My wife has been after me to do this to our Passport 2910. Where did you get the doors?

Seems like those tubs are made for RV dinettes.

Bought the doors from the Dealer/Keystone.. I ordered the same door as the one below the oven.. Exact size I needed.

I tinted mine too. Made a difference in the summer. I bought the tint off of eBay.

Just remember, the tint is reflective during the day but at night you can see through it...at least ours you can.

Yeah i have tinted a couple cars, residential tint is a lot easier because the windows are flat, It's a little less reflective now that it's dried, and you can see through at nihgt, but i am sure it'll help with the heat, i may still do perf vinyl outside, i haven't decided yet.

I just bought the tint from my local graphics supply shop, any place that sells vinyl supplies should have it for a reasonable price, i think it was around $50 CAD for enough to do 4 windows. (there are 2 more windows similar size on the other side of the trailer that i did as well)
