Question...
Has anyone tried using any of the stick on coat/towel hangers on the wallpaper? I'd like to put a towel holder up in the bathroom and was thinking of using the stick on stuff instead of screws.

For just about everything in the RV, I use the 3M command strips:

I love them and never had a problem with them at all. I've got them all over the Premier including some in the bathroom plus waterproof ones in the tub/shower. I like using the large size hooks for hanging large jackets or wet towels. I use smaller size ones for smaller jackets, hats, keys, etc.
No issues at all with the wallpaper or other surfaces when removing the double sided tape.
On a side note, a two trips ago, I did notice that one of the wall panel seams (between the bunk and the rear window) had bowed out and was no longer laying flat. It seems as if the adhesive has come loose. I bought a tube of Liquid Nails adhesive that I'm going to try to put in between to hold it down.
I also still have the problem the power tongue jack. Last spring, the dealer diagnosed it as a loose ground, but I haven't been able to find where the ground connection is on that unit. I saw a 2011 Premier at Camping World and noticed that the 3 bolts holding down the jack were unpainted (unlike mine) and on the Barker electric tongue jack I had before also used the mounting bolt as the ground, so I sanded down the bolt and the frame on mine to remove the paint, bought a "toothed" lock washer and tried to create a ground connection that way but it didn't work.

Thanks VirtualGarage, that's exactly what I was thinking of using.
@Garysol - Yep, When I'm his age I hope someone spoils me the way we spoil him. Took the back seat completely out of the 4 door truck and put two Costco-size dog beds back there, covered in an old sleeping bag. He loves camping!! lol.

I went to Home Depot and picked up a sheet of plexiglass for $16.00, and 12 velcro squares for $4.00. I have to go to the storage lot this week to measure the outer diamater of the box so I can cut it, (or if someone has thier unit at home) I am going to cut it so that it matched the yellow outline in virtual's post and attach the velcro to the corners. Once I get it done I'll post some pics. Thanks again fot the idea!!!

That's awesome. One thing about putting velcro only on the corners is that there will be a gap along the sides and bugs could potentially get in that way. If you put the velcro in strips all around the edge, it would be overkill in terms of holding strength but it provide a tight barrier. You should be able to buy hook & loop (velcro) fasteners by the roll.

So how are we going to mount the velcro strips to the wood frame so that the strips do not pull off every time we take the Plexiglas off in order to spin the TV around??

What if you mounted the plexiglass on hinges on one side so that it opened like a cupboard door instead of using velcro? Then you could use felt/rubber strip to seal around the edges. Might be better than two sided velcro strips.??

That sounds like a better idea if the plexiglass will clear the overhead light as it swings open......

Thats what Im worried about. Once I get out to the storage lot later this week I will have a more warm and fuzzy about what Im going to do, but I will keep the hinges in mind, since I already have a few small ones in the garage.
