    Safety Upgrades

    1 - Added a "real" 10 LB fire extinguisher inside the "closet" under the electrical panel at the RV entry. (yes, it is on a bracket now)
    2 - The two steps up to the bath/bedroom are very slippery with the wrong combination of shoes and conditions. Added 3M anti-slip strips. (buy 9 ft for both steps).
    3 - Added DOT-C2 reflective tape to the rear. Makes me more visible to drivers behind me. A high-mount brake and tail light, like what is required in cars, is next.

    (Good Mod - I put the Fire Extinguisher in the bedroom too but need to do the steps. I almost broke my neck one time.)

    Check out my "Added Extra Visibility" post on a set of brake, turn signal lights I added to my toy hauler.
