The angle is a 3m length of 30x30x3 aluminium from Bunnings. It's glued with a white sikaflex, and screwed with stainless steel countersunk screws.
I painted the angle with White rattle can spray paint.

Good old sikaflex. Is there anything it cant do? Someone lost a tube off the back of a ute near the entrance to the mine out here a few years back, and it got ran over. Bloody thing stuck to the road and there was this big sikaflex lump for about a year!
I have also used Soaring's idea and added rubber to the step. I cut it to size and stuck it on with silicone.
Hi @Moxley23 , haven't been online for a few weeks, o/a for work.
The edge grips pretty well on its own, so no need for glue. The step, I removed and place in the step well when travelling so haven't glued that down either. I may get around to sticking it down, and would probably go with the silaflex. It seems to stick to anything.
Hi there, where did the fridge light come from? and also the step cover, where abouts in Bunnings? I have not seen them and I have a little crawler who no doubt is due to crash down the step this Christmas...
Cheers
With our big trip coming in a few months, I need to get my arse back into gear and get some more mods done. Today was the TV bracket.
I've seen quite a few takes in this for the 17.56. The factory won't mount a wall bracket for you, so it's either sit the TV on the bench, or work out a way to make a bracket work.
Given the limited bench space, I wanted to keep it as clear as possible so I went with a ceiling mount from eBay. Originally I was going to mount it to the underside of the cupboard over the bench, but the bracket mount was too big. I ended up mounting I under the end cupboard instead.
It can rotate around to face either the dinette, or the end bed
You do need to remove the TV prior to folding up the end bed, but most mounts recommend TV removal while travelling anyway.

I particularly like the way you captured Hodgey getting his premiership medallion!
(Oh, and great mod by the way)

As a Tigers man it pains me to admit how good the Hawks are. Kennetts curse has definitely lifted.
Hi @Soaring, great TV bracket and install. Does this have a quick release, so you don't have to screw the TV back onto the bracket each time you remove it?
Hi @numbez , it has a quick release of sorts, but I'm modding it to make it a little more user friendly. By design it is more of a screw up and set.
Hi mate, well done on the mods. Where did you find the light in the fridge, eBay? Is it battery powered?
Cheers @Journey I can't take credit for the light. If I remember correctly this one came from @Pace. But you can get them at Bunnings/Masters. 2 AA battery powered. Actually, I'm putting another one in on the inside on the ensuite door, so when the tin kids get up in the night for a number 1, the light will go on when the door opens.
