I'd be willing to purchase the current legs from you or trade you even up if you haven't made the deal yet if interested let me know I will get you my info

Thanks for offer Traydon but we're going to keep both for now and make up our mind.... I'm fairly confident if we stick with the Posts, we will attach a countertop to the folding legs and use it as an outdoor table.

Ok, so I tried some pretty cheap weather stripping around the back tv in the outdoor kitchen (to keep out the bugs) and that didnt work out so good. Maybe I shouldnt have used the cheap stuff, maybe I put it in the wrong areas. has anyone come up with a good fix for the gap around the tv on the 31BHPR? If so, please take a few pics and post them. We are going out again this weekend and I am going to try a better weather strip.

Mods so far on my 28RL Premier:
...Moved 19" included flat panel TV to bedroom on wall mount. Installed new 32" flat panel in living room.
...Mounted three power strips to make up for inadequate number of recepticles. One on right side of bedroom (left side had recepticle). One under kitchen window above counter. One next to etertainment center.
....Removed blank panel under oven and replaced with matching cupboard door ordered by dealer from Keystone. Looks factory and should be (are you listening Keystone?). NICE extra cupboard just right for pots and pans.
...Hung towel bars and toilet paper holder.
...Put a couple large hooks in storage area to hang hoses and power cords.

Nothing else planned for now but who knows what one will think of ?????
Just waiting for weather to get better to finish loading and take first trip.

Keep us informed on what else you do. We have the same model. Nice to hear you put the door in under the oven area. Can you think of any reason for them to not have done this? Just a money saving thing, heat from oven, were there any propane lines or other lines in the way? How much space to you get?

Did you have to do any modifications for the 32" tv on the mounting because of more weight or just how you connect to the wall mount?

How did you connect your power strip to the right side of the bed? When I discovered this issue last year (we only had it a week before we had to store it!) I just ran a cord from the left side to the right. Would like something more permanent. I'll have to check on the kitchen area and what would work for me there also.

Thanks for your comments.

It's SNOWING here today! 5 days to get camper out of winter storage! yeaaaaaaaaa [emoticon]

msalyer I forgot to include in my message that I had looked at Keystone website and found this model was one we wanted. We found one fairly local, bought it and picked it up later after it was detailed etc. At the campsite I was surprised there wasn't a door there. It showed one on the keystone website. This is one of the "little" changes they make in the building process. Maybe they ran low on doors and just didn't install them at the time.

Would you be willing to share the purchase order information with us? PM if you want, any info, item #, cost, whatever you have. If I could order one and have this information handy it may be helpful. TYVM

Hope I can help. For the 32" flat panel I had to change mounts. I think the original would have been plenty strong but it wouldn't attach to the bigger tv.

For the power strip I mounted it on the front of the "nightstand" right at the top. I purchased a strip with an 8 foot cord and a replacement plug for the end. I cut off the original plug drilled through the underbed storage boxes and ran the cord over to the recepticle for my central vac. Installed the new plug and plugged in there. If you don't have the central vac you would have to drill through to the next compartment where the water pump is located. There you could access the existing recepticle. I'm going to post up some pictures later today. It will be better than my description.

For the door- the upper cabinet door is the perfect size so I had my dealer order a door, handle, hinge and catch. He needed my VIN # and the size of the door. All total it cost a tad over $60 w/ shipping for the door. There is nothing inside there and it is quite a large space and as deep as the counter/Stove above. Must just be a cost thing for Keystone.
Off to take some pics and hopefully post them up in a little while.

Thanks for the pictures. That really is a large amount of storage space that I could definitely use.

Does anyone know the dimensions of the bedroom windows? I've the 28RLPR model and there are two sizes. Not sure if the window size in the bedrooms of other model is the same.

Snow stay away!
4 days to go and camper will be home!
