Good afternoon; Great looking camper, question, would you mind telling me where you purchased the spare rims from?? I have the same problem.. same rig did not come with spare tire. God bless

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

@@JPeeeeZY I got the rim from my local tire shop. They do all my tires on all my campers. But you can check Etrailer.com - that's where i had the hitch adaptor from.

[@camcaro5873]

Was in love and really into a winnebago view, but these are really nice, although a different class and bit bigger.

[@mferrarorace]

You did a nice job on the improvements. Looks good and clean!

[@roi9902]

Very practical and worth considering. Thanks.

[@delaineymacphearson6850]

Love this unit. Love you mods. This is the perfect driving size for us.

[@gregoire8376]

What a good video - I'm looking at a Thor Axis and wonder what a long term view of issues with the RV. This is perfect. Thanks

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

Glad it was helpful!

[@WickedTooners]

Thanks for the two upgrade videos. Our decision to buy a 25.2 Vegas was partially due to your videos. I don't have a TPMS yet. What brand are you using that works with the Android phone? Thanks in advance.

[@dalegribble60]

The keylocks on the outdoor cubbies are added to ensure they don't come open during travel. You should install a folding shelf beside the bathroom sink to add more counterspace. Oh and Thor uses other methods of construction than just staples.....hot glue gun! That's how they fastened the studs behind the dash receiver. Other than that you've done a great job!

[@markswishereatsstuff2500]

If boats were made like RVs, they would sink in a year!

[@mrzif0013]

great tips. what does the rig weigh? which headlights did you purchase?

[@MrStephenlovett]

Where did you get the mattress for the front bunk, we have the original air mattress and its a pain to deal with

[@TheYogaZen]

Nice job! Did you redrill safety pin holes for the over cab bunk bed or just drive with it like that?

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

actually i just removed them for now. so far no problems

[@mrzif0013]

Nice jobs. Any idea where the awning fuse might be? I am not finding it in the controller/fuse box?

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

No clue. Sorry

[@kedelbach]

very nicely done. Why do you have the separately switch for "outlets and TV" on DC? Why not just run the house batteries and have power for everything when driving? thanks!

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

Thank. If run EVERYTHING from DC/AC inventor, you will need some pretty big inventor that can run microwave, fridge and AC. I'm not even sure it even exists.

[@kedelbach]

@@VladyslavSvyrydenko ok I'm thinking about when driving so no microwave or AC, just outlets and lights for passengers. When parked I'd only run AC and microwave when plugged into 30A AC or on Generator. Just bought my first motorhome, a 2009 Sunseeker 3120DS Class C so have a lot to learn. thanks!

[@user-pn8dn6rp2s]

I am wondering how you have a downward drop on your vegas hood. my 2021 vegas hood goes up and yours goes down . how did you do that ? jsut turn the hardware around?

[@Metalrogue]

What was that water dripping above the black tank valve? Great mods!

[@geod3589]

probably forgot to put a washer in the connector, I've heard Thor is bad about that.

[@JimT13]

How did you upgrade the wiper arms? I like the look of your Vegas with the upgraded wipers and the poli glow.

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

Thank you. I didn't do any upgrades to the wipers, just replaced them with the newer ones.

[@JimT13]

What new wiper arms did you use? Did you have to change out any parts?

[@rover1102]

Do you have info on the tpms you setup?

[@mrzif0013]

on my 24.1 vegas my fresh water tank/drain valve is located under the passenger side bunk. i like to drain my fresh water tank to keep the water fresh and santized for drinking. I have thought of putting an access plate outside near the floor. just curious if you have thought of doing so?

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

Thanks for the tip! See my Part 2 video were i added an access door.

[@PlaneSpotterRVer314]

I have a 2016 Thor Vegas that I also have done many upgrades to since I bought it. Hey quick question where did you buy the speaker/light for the outside

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

I picked it up at local rv store. I don't think they make it anymore.

[@PlaneSpotterRVer314]

@@VladyslavSvyrydenkowhat RV store did you buy it at? I want to see if I can still find it

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

@@PlaneSpotterRVer314 that was StateLine Camping located in Presho NY.

[@PlaneSpotterRVer314]

@@VladyslavSvyrydenko Thank you!!

[@PlaneSpotterRVer314]

Hey quick question. So the for house battery voltage how did you run the wires to it.

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

That one is easy, just connect the meter to any 12vdc positive and negative wires that are behind the panel. It doesn't really matter which ones since voltage is equal across the system. You can use a multimeter to locate/identify those.

[@tyronea1]

How's the clear coat holding up. Have you had to put more on?

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

It's holding pretty well. peels a little over decals. but nothing major.

[@tyronea1]

Did you replace any decals before clear coat if so where did you get them

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

I did not, decals were in good shape and i pit clear coat right on top of them.

[@tomdedwith5887]

Hi, where did you purchase the outdoor light speaker combo ?

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

Actually I didn't buy it. Last year i bought out a bunch of merchandise from camping store that was going out of business. This speaker was among other things. I think I have another one, let me know if you're interested and I can put it in my eBay store for you to purchase. I believe it goes for around 100 bucks

[@jameswalker6024]

@@VladyslavSvyrydenko Do you have any information on the speaker (manufacturer, model number, etc?) or do you still have an extra? Thanks in advance.

[@lucygonzalez9102]

Great upgrade, I need a spare rim, what size rim or part number please

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

I just ordered my rim at the local tire store that does all my tires on all my RVs.

[@run_sarah_run]

What is the part number for the etrailer hitch for the spare tire? Thank you

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

here are the codes in etrailer.com website E98ZR and MPG544 I HOPE THIS HELPS

Do you have a link to the clear holders you have mounted throughout your RV? (It is at the 8:00 mark.) Thank You in Advance

any ideas on how to improve access to the freshwater tank valve?

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

can you elaborate?

[@mrzif0013]

Ever take the tv over the coach door off the wall? how does it come off the wall?

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

There are pull latches/belts behind it.

[@sewaaralasl]

How much does a car cost and how to get it?

[@javieraceves942]

How much did it cost you to clear coat the exterior?

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

I did it myself with PolyGlow products so it costed me about $200

[@matthewknight5641]

I think it's really cheaply made but if you can sue the renters when it falls apart on them then you can for sure make money with this unit

[@brucebakke6742]

Does it have a gasoline generator?

[@VladyslavSvyrydenko]

Of course 🙂

[@bfarm44]

You need to change all the bolts on the sewer pipes with stainless steel with lock nuts before you have to snap them if you can.

That is a shame you have to about rebuild this and it cost a fortune and I like these RVs😢

Well, I bought it used, so I paid less than half of what the original owners did.
