5.15.13 Lights and Water

5.15.13

Lights and water (with help)!  I had to phone a friend for this one and “borrow a husband”. Tom was willing to help and I was willing to let someone help me.  There is only so much 1 woman can do by herself.  He helped me with the wiring and getting her lights in working order, which was a large task because there was some glitches in the way it was originally wired.  Was able to find tail lights and blinkers that were “shorter” than the average to fit inside the covers without melting the plastic cone lights on the sides.  I also had to order a licence plate light from Vintage Trailer Supply. 

 

 

 

 

Next we worked on getting the water working.  I had already bought all the parts we needed and he helped get them installed properly.  My old faucet was too rusted so I purchased a new one from IKEA.  I will not have contained water on board and I did not install a grey water tank.  So with that in mind we installed the standard hose hook up on the outside of the trailer and just attached a drain tube that will lead to the outside of the trailer and drain into “something” (not yet determined – a bucket perhaps?)  We also had to cap off the hot water line since I don’t have that option.  And Viola! We have water.
