Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.
We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!
Ok, I ordered my bloody drive disconnect for my Tacoma today, then came back and pulled the first of the tube tbs out, the one in the dash. I now have this gaping hole where the tv was. I am thinking of mounting a gps/cell/etc charger with a slide out laptop stand there. My questions are:
1) I was told simply capping the wires (non 110) would disable the cutout for the 110 outlet for the tv. Is that correct, as the tech also told me he wouldn't admit telling me. I want to ensure it's cool before I cut and cap those wires.
2) the previous owner mounted a cb on the left side and seems to have had it wired in directly, because after the tv was removed, I found a CB band connector hanging free. So, question would be, is it a good idea to use the cb connection power for some 12v outlets or better to invert off the 110 outlet that's back there.
3) is there already an after market product or set or something for this and am I rebuilding the wheel here? I halfway expect I am.
Thanks for any insights you can provide.
* I also just asked this on NuRv and am hoping between the replies, I know how to proceed. Plan is to be on the road as soon as they finish my truck. I am beaucoup ready to be moving. Old Rom genes seem to be coming out after all these years off the road now. What is it I see called in the rv posts, hitch-itch? Kinda the same thing, je comprends, but we called it bein antsy to see over the next hill (which really confused me when I was 4 and we were in southern FL which has no real hills or curves, lol)
Thanks again for any advice, suggestions or insights
