Finally got tired of moving the hand towel out of the sink in the half bath every time I wanted to use it. We tried to find smaller hand towels, but that got us down to wash cloths ... so decided to move the towel ring up above the lighting panel and problem solved. Sometimes the little things make a big difference.

The top edge is where the primary magnets are sown in, and pockets for the installation pole to be inserted for installation. It's kind of the heart of their system, so not easily tweaked. If drip rails are installed before magneshade is installed for the first time I could see it working, but after the inside magnets are in place your kind of stuck with where it sits. The magnets are a bear to move around once installed.
 
Okay, I bet $1 no one else has this add-on!

A boat compass anyone? Yep, my little fun toy to help me determine if I need to install MagneShades or not. I have already turned off the coach so all of those options are out (chassis compass, Garmin 770, and Dash Radio) and sometimes I worry my iPhone compass may be affected by the highly radioactive coach (so much noise), okay, not enough excuses to have this? Well I got it! It's velcro'd up so I can remove it should shaming become intolerable. It's been up for 2-3 months now so I haven't been shamed enough yet!

Neal, I would rather have a vertical card compass. Hated the whiskey compasses in the Cessnas. Never knew which way is the right way to turn :)
 
I was shamed and therefore removed it. Now I just use the sun :(
 
This isn't exactly a mod, I pulled out every drawer and opened every cupboard in our RV and photographed the contents. That has been amazingly helpful if I'm trying to recall " Do we have one of these in the RV?'.

You have the right to like it. I thought is was a good idea.:cool:

But @Neal still likes pineapple on pizza proving that some of his ideas just aren’t that good….

Velcro on window blinds to stop banging on road.
I have that but it's difficult to do on the driver side. The 'hang point' of the roller shade is not in a place to attach Velcro. I'm wondering if I could play around with it and adjust the "hang point".
 
Here's a nice (and inexpensive) way to get some whole-coach ventilation in coaches with the emergency exit door in the back. I attached a magnetic screen curtain by cutting it to the size of the door surround, added velcro with some iron-on heat bond adhesive tape on the sides and added the other side of the velcro to the door surround. Just open the front door screen and the emergency door and enjoy the breeze! Here's some pics...

Finally a use for that door other than for emergencies. Thanks @GlampDaddy

I can already see my wife's expression when she sees the new screen door on HER bathroom!
Personally I Love the idea though!

She may want to close the emergency door on occasion!
 
In some climates, it could be a eco-friendly enhancement to the bidet.
 
Ok this was cheap ($14.99) easy (5 minutes) and somewhat ridiculous. As you can probably guess, I’m getting pretty far down my list. Time to get back out on the road!….but I’m pretty sure I like it better.

10/20 - Edited to reflect correct price.
