Revere, yes, that's it, alright! Mine did have the drain pan, but poorly installed. I traded the unit off four years ago. But this is a great addition to this post for those with this unit! Thanks!

Yes, I could see the edge of my drip pan up through the slots also. That much was as planned and designed. But after pulling off a LOT of caulk and rubber foam tape, it was evident water was going...

Downspout
One more little thing. I place this piece of conduit elbow on the end while parked and the AC running. It does a nice job of taking the water away from running down the skin of the camper. Just...

Will finish the job today and send more pics. Have decided to use 3 stainless pan washers at each bottom row screw. That will hold black shroud away from wall for drainage into J-Channel, and also...

Aaron, in my exploring today, I did pull back that panel underneath the AC, looking to find out why it wouldn't budge. (later found out they caulked the whole thing in like crazy) That panel pried...
