The retractable clothes line is awesome, and was not aware of it before this video. Thank You!
@Devan Stringham So happy our video helped with an idea! We appreciate you watching! 🤩
The shower drying hanger is a great idea!
@ricecakwtfw It’s definitely one of our faves! Thanks for watching! 🤩
cloths line! such a good idea!! thank you.
@Exp837 This was definitely one of our favorite add ons! Thanks for watching! 🤩
We purchased a shower, caddy dispenser that dispenses your shampoo and body wash,, and we love it it’s been a couple years. It stayed on with the adhesive that they give you no screwing into the wall necessary. It’s absolutely amazing. We got it on Amazon and ours holds five different soaps. This way you can have your shampoo and your conditioner in your body wash depending on if you guys both use the same thing or if you eat you something different. One of the best things we’ve ever bought.
@michillekrantz5154 Thanks for sharing! 😊
You guys are great. My wife and I used our travel trailer for the first time 2 weeks ago. What an experience! We went to a lake close to home just to practice. Almost froze the first night because the heater would not stay on. Anyway, you have given me some great ideas for our future travels. Keep up the good work.
@Apostle Emil Cedeno Thank you! First & foremost CONGRATULATIONS on your new travel trailer! 🥳 We are so happy to hear that our videos have been helpful & thanks for watching! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions we can help with. Happy camping to you guys! 🪵
Ordering my retractable clothesline right now! Thank you for the ideas!
@sewshannysew6434 Yay! That was one of our favorite mods! Don’t forget to get the dual lines! Thanks for watching! 🤩
Thank you for your videos and very helpful tips! I think you are my favorite TH-cam channel for campers. We have a TT for a few months and haven't taken it out yet on a trip. You all are easy to understand and calm/peaceful - which is so nice.

This is a great video. Honestly, I was more impressed with the puck light than I thought it would be. These are all great addons and just what I was looking for. Thanks
@Alex-sn7uj We are so glad to hear our video was helpful! Thank you for your feedback. Happy camping! 😃🚌🪵
Appreciate this video. I have a Riverside Retro 135 - really small! Only to thing add: I put up hooks EVERYWHERE - great for hats, coats, cups, and out of the way. Trust me, put up a hook and you'll use it. Thanks!
@JackFilms99 We do love hooks and have added a few! Cool camper for sure! Thanks for watching and happy camping! 🤩
A to Z. Wow !! I want to see what you think of next. Please do a 2023 version of this to show what is new !!

Thank you! I personally love the Anderson hitch. The directions were not done well, but I made my own and it is wonderful!
I like the idea there is a real woman involved for the details.
@Sharon B We are so happy to hear that you found a hitch that works for you! We hope we present ourselves as real people because that’s what we are! Us women are powerful too! Lol! Thanks for watching & happy camping! 🤩
Great video Just found your channel! Maxx air vent covers in my opinion are a must have! a maxxair fan is a great way to move air! I installed one in our front vent and its moves so much air my wife gest cold when I open a back window( you actually feel a good breeze). I used to use the LED puck lights for lighting dark spaces that had no or little light coverage. I got tired of replacing batteries. I installed 12 volt puck lights. Its actually not hard to do as long as you have a 12 volt wire running close by. Maybe I should have stated this before, my wife and I are heavy rv mod kinda people. Oh yes good year tires ! another must have. well happy camping.
@David Groves We are so happy you have found our channel and thank you for taking time to comment. We definitely need a Maxxair fan because it gets so hot in Texas! The 12 volt puck lights sound like a great idea! We are mods kinda people also and really enjoy hearing what you have done to your trailer! We hope you have subscribed to our channel to join our community! 🤩
I keep a 3.5 gallon bucket on the head of my jack, and the handle doubles as a place to clip the safety chains onto.
@C_Beaver That is a wonderful idea and we have tried that, but unfortunately it turns on the light switch on our tongue Jack! Great idea for sure! Thank you for watching our video and taking time to comment! We hope you have subscribed to our channel! We would appreciate your support! 🤩
I do the same only we use a 5 gal can. It can hold the chains too !

Very nice video & helpful tips! My wife and I just picked up our first camper this last weekend, and I just ordered a few items off this video! Cheers & happy camping!
@Trey Lashley So glad our video was helpful! Please let us know if you have any questions & thank you for watching! What Camper did you purchase? Happy camping to you as well! 🤩
@@OutsidebySide We got a 2022 Wildwood FSX 178BHSK. Similar size to what you guys have.
@@tlashley So happy to hear! Hope you guys enjoy it as much as we do! Don’t forget to check out our RV Setup & Breakdown video! th-cam.com/video/de1WA6Qu2bI/w-d-xo.html🤩
Great ideas. We have a smaller TT, similar to yours. We will use some of your modifications. Thank you
@josifoxxido So happy to hear our mods are helpful! Thanks for watching and happy camping! 😀
Excellent upgrades we will definitely be applying some t our camper thank you
@sic-n-tiredtired4273 Glad we can help! Thanks for watching! 😃
Great teaching
I learned so many things from this lovely 🥰 couple ENJOY GUYS LUCKY RASI🙏
@Lucky Rasi Thank you for watching & we are so happy to hear that our video was helpful! 🤩
We have a burn mark on the wall next to our stove. Your panel from Amazon is a great idea. I’ll have to figure out a way to make it stick. I really like the transcript which is very helpful. Thanks for a great video.
@EB316 We appreciate you watching our video! We have also had a hard time making the vinyl tiles stick due to the humidity and the texture of the RV paneling. We are considering covering the area with a smoother material such as aluminum for the adhesive back tiles to stick. We will try to make a video on this if it works! Happy camping! 🤩
Some people use a ceiling tin as well as a sheet of stainless steel...or maybe aluminum?? Anyway, heat proof and easy to clean and easier to put up and stay up. Or you could use construction adhesive and glue the tiles to a luan board or similar, (that would allow changes and updates over time), and then fix the luan board to the wall.
Some good tips. Some of the rear cameras will connect to,your tow vehicle monitor which is a nice. The changing of the tires we used to call china bombs. They will blow up after minimal use.
@ThePNWRiderWA Yes, we call them China bombs too. LOL. Thanks for watching! 😊
For the backsplash use Construction adhesive like Loctite or PL but FYI it will never come off when it dries : )
@KaNe Thanks for the tip & thank you for watching our video! 🤩
I love the USB puck lights
@krisg3984 Yes, those are definitely one of our faves & they come in handy! Thanks for watching! 🤩
Strips of velcro work great on that back splash and you can take it back down and move it if you like..
@Steven Stair That’s a wonderful idea! We haven’t thought of that. Thank you for the suggestion & for watching our video! 🤩
@@OutsidebySide your welcome 😊
Great video. Where did you find the power jack mount to move the jack back so you can use the tailgate?
@russporter9865 We purchased the Jack Back through a company called American Car Craft but we would not recommend them. We made it work but had make several modifications. We did a video on this. Here is the link in case you haven’t seen it. th-cam.com/video/xo_M7UGdBUQ/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for watching! 🤩
Hey love the videos, was curious what type of shower surround yall used and how you mounted it in over existing walls?
@chrishulsey2813 We purchased the shower wall on Amazon. Here is the link: Lippert 306207 Better Bath 24" x... www.amazon.com/dp/B00JMHIKGS?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
To Mount it we used white plastic rivets. Here is the link as well: CRANE COMPOSITES RIV50WH 3/4"... www.amazon.com/dp/B003A0STDM?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
The tubs are pretty standard but double check your size before ordering.
Let us know if you have any more questions. Thanks for watching! 🤩
Just FYI,turning the propane tank cover around,will assure it not opening during any road trips.
Nice camper !
@Cookie MB Thank you for the tip & for watching our video! 🤩
Hey love the videos cause I just bought the exact same camper but 2022 . What size bed did you put on the Murphy bed ? Im looking to upgrade from the 4 inch mattress that came with it .
@Jimmy White Congratulations on your new trailer and so happy to hear you purchased the same one! We added a 3 inch topper to our mattress for more cushion. That was all could add in order to close the Murphy bed. Thanks for watching our video & please let us know if we can help with anything! 🤩
You should do a video on how to wash your rig. It's always super clean.
@electriccuts We plan on incorporating that in a video soon. We’ve only washed it a couple times but don’t tell anybody. Lol. Thanks for watching! 🤩
You could also turn the head on your electric jack 90 degrees and you can open your tailgate
@rubenmanitowabi Yes, we have considered it but we moved it back so we could keep the light pointing forward. Thanks for watching! 🤩
Liquid Nails.... Try that on your kitchen back splash/tiles...
@wolfman0514 Thank you for the suggestion & for watching our video! We will definitely try that! 🤩
Try E6000 glue. Holds up to heat and cold very well
@marilynclegg116 Thanks for the tip & thanks for watching our video! 🤩
what did you use to mount the wall caddy? I would be hesitant to put very much weight in it.
@Diane Rohrscheib We used screws to attach it so it’s secure. We use it for our toiletries & towels. It is very sturdy & we haven’t had any issues yet. Thanks for watching! 🤩
For the back splash, would museum putty or gorilla tape work?
@Books nBeaches We definitely want to try these options! Thank you for your suggestions & thank you for watching our video! We hope you have subscribed to our channel for upcoming videos! 🤩
Where did yall purchase your shower shell? How is it installed?
@cassidylaine10 We purchased it on Amazon & installed it ourselves! Please let us know if we can help with any additional questions & thanks for watching! 🤩
Question. We are trying to find a tire cover company to make one up. Who did your back tire cover?
@LifesLittleAdventures28 We purchased the tire cover on Amazon & we made it ourselves because we own a sign shop. Thanks for watching! 🤩
I keep a five gallon bucket in my garage.
@kennyd2134 Yes, we do the same! It’s a great way to be prepared. Thanks for watching! 😀
3M spray adhesive will fix the backslash
@raycalandra1887 Thanks for the tip and thank you for watching! 😊
how do you attach anything onto the walls?
@bigtymajosh0 We use commercial grade 3M heavy duty double sided BHV tape! It works perfectly. Thanks for watching! 😀
Hi Guys, thanks for another helpful video! That Oxygenics shower head…the holder it came with…did you have to screw it jnto the shower wall?
@Chris The hoses screws into the existing head & the holder or bracket has to screwed onto the shower wall. 🤩 Thanks for watching!
@@OutsidebySide my trailer
Is brand spanking new, so I am hesitant to screw anything into the bathroom wall. I might see if I can attach that holder using strong double-sided tape. Hopefully it will hold. Love you guys❤️
@@OPSteel97 What kind of trailer did you get? 😄
@@OutsidebySide It’s a Casita. I picked it up last April in Rice TX. Lovvvve it!
@@OPSteel97 wow! We LOVE Casitas! We have a friend who has one as well! So happy for you! They are AWESOME trailers! 🎉🤩💃🏻🚃🚌
Mama had her hair down, OMG! (looks good!) ; - )
@Bert Kelly Thank you, it’s rare! 😂 Thank you for watching our video! 🤩
Where did you get the power tongue jack?
@rhonda Williams We purchased it on Amazon. Here is the link: Blackhawk RV Camper (Trailer)... www.amazon.com/dp/B087N4T1HR?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
Thank you for watching our video! 😄
Hi what brand camera is that thanks
@ZavySZN The backup camera is a Furrion. We put a link in the description of our video in case you want to purchase. Thanks for watching! 🤩
I meant to ask you all have you provided a link anywhere in any of your videos on where you got your tv mount? I noticed you have it mounted to your cabinet on the end of the microwave. I was considering doing the same so it will clear the Murphy bed but wasn’t sure which one would be the best to purchase. Thanks for all the great tips keep them coming!
Hello Luke, here is the link: www.amazon.com/dp/B084Z881TP/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_C0HMXYHND9DD7PZPVAY2?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Let us know if it works for you! Have a wonderful weekend! 🤩
@@OutsidebySide thank you for the link. Also I just saw a interesting mod yall may want to try. I saw on another channel they used a 4” pvc pipe cut to length to cover their awning from sun damage when parked or traveling. It’s basically just two pieces one long one the length of the awning roll and then one short two foot piece that snaps over that piece. Snap on snap off. No disassembling the awning or anything complicated… I liked the idea.
@@lukebramblett66 Thank you for the tip! We are always looking for ideas! Can you send us the link via email at info@outsidebyside.net
You are the best! Thanks for supporting us! 🤩
@@OutsidebySide my email is experiencing problems and is not usable at the moment but here is a link to the video. It’s a older video but still very useful. th-cam.com/video/goo_VzZvJ3A/w-d-xo.html
How do you attach your Rhino portable sewer tank to your rear bumper? Like you I have no attached rear ladder to hang it on to secure it (what that big hook underneath the unit is for) I have the 36G model Thanks. Also added 2 more RV windows and an outside shower unit like you did, just have to take careful measurements before making those saw cuts and holes in the TT. Also easy to add privacy curtains. storage shelves, and towel bars for each sleep area (front queen & bunks). Plus the Hott Rod electric heating option for the hot water tank since my TT has LP water heating only (simple 15 mins. installation). Why use your own LP since the electric is already paid for. Safe & Happy travels!!!
@Paul C In regards to the rhino, it’s an additional bracket that we purchased on Amazon. Here is the link: Camco Rhino Bumper Mount RV Tote Tank Carrier - Mounts Directly onto Your RV Bumper to Secure Your Rhino Tote Tank in Place During Travel ; Fits All Tote Tank Sizes : 15, 21, 28, & 36 Gallon (39010) www.amazon.com/dp/B07P8B9WHD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_J5YM3TQM1VRAE5CDYCEJ?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Glad to hear you have the 36 gallon model!
We love to hear about your mods! that is so wonderful! Added two windows? WOW! How awesome! Thanks for sharing and thank you for watching our video! We would love your support by subscribing to our channel! 🤩
@@OutsidebySide Thanks ObS for the link, just sub'd. My TT is the 2017 Keystone 175 LHS, it's obvious where the 2 windows were needed (upper bunk & by the entry door). Our 2 kids are now a young adult and a teen so no longer tag along. When just us or myself as retired & wife still works F/T, the bunks make great extra storage plus nice to always have room for the occasional guest or 2. Also designed and made by own bunk ladder from lumber for about $15 when found out how much the metal bunk ladders cost. Overall it's an OK TT but not sure I would get another Keystone if there is a next time as put in so much effort & time for all those mods. Lucked out as only few minor issues with my TT (AM function in Jensen radio never worked, occasional on /off flashing from overhead light outside the bathroom door and the motor in the small bath vent fan finally died last year so replaced it with the large HENGS Vortex fan, relatively easy but better to do it with 2 persons (1 outside, 1 inside), it's a definite improvement for sure.
@@paulc8092 Thank you for subscribing to our channel! Sounds like you have done as much as us to your TT. Lol. The bunk ladder sounds fantastic! We are in the same boat with older children! They are doing their own thing. We have a video coming out in 2 weeks on a bunk mod that we think you will enjoy! Look out for that video. Would like you have a great TT but unfortunately they all have issues due to the build quality! Thanks for responding & happy camping to you guys! 🤩
Use liquid nails to secure the backsplash. It will never come off haha
@Anthony Vazquez Thank you for the idea! We will definitely be trying this method. Thank you for watching our video! 🤩
Putting LED lights inside and outside of the travel trailer gives you a whole lot more light and uses less electricity out of the battery
@rickmarchetti3698 yes sir, you are correct! Thanks for watching! 🤩
The issue with the peel and stick tile is that it doesn’t adhere well to the RV wall surface, so applying and let dry a wallpaper sizing will probably cure the problem. Apply to the wall surface and let dry completely, overnight would be best.
@vairon7474 Thanks for the tip! 🤩
Just FYI,turning the propane tank cover around,will assure it not opening during any road trips.
Nice camper !
@Cookie MB Thank you for the tip and for watching our video! 🤩
