I did mine yesterday finally. The wires, for me, went through a double wall channel. The wires spilled out into the open channel where the big hinge hardware is.
From there it's just a hole and wire bushing through the floor. Mine is in the corner of the diamond plate and rubber covering.
Simple hook up to the OEM wires, green wire, running lights, white wire, ground, red wire, turn signal. Keep in mind that's they way mine are wired, no guarantee the next unit even comes close.
Inside photos today if possible and if preferred.
One thing, Dutchman uses 3M quick connect components but they aren't sealed. If you're going to have the tail light out for the wiring you might as well get quality 33+ tape and tape all the quick connects. I found some of mine were getting crusty in only a year.

San a cons? What is it? A macerator of sorts?

Thanks - best bet for me is the removeable model as I have the second tank in the rear of the coach.

Found same color of wiring on mine. The 3M connector were all sealed on mine . I ran my wires down through the floor & covered with split loom. Yes you can see it but have to be looking. I'll post a picture tonight of them lit up. Tailgaters should see it

DesertRat - am I correct in assuming you just drilled a small hole all the way thru to the interior behind the new lights then?

Correct, wires run between rear screen door rail & rear main frame. As the split loom I used is back it all blends in. Yes you can see them if you look but they sure don't stand out.

I suggest you search this thread back towards the beginning. I was the first to this mod. You should in no way see any wires. The wires are all connected from outside and ran under your rail moldings on the outside. Read my post back and I explained how to do it.

Now it stays there up against the wall out of the way all the time when not in use. (see pictures)
Second was something that drove me crazy. In the shower under the shower controls is a round acess panel. Dutchmen installed regular sheet metal screws in that panel to secure it to the wall. Trouble is it gets wet every time you use the shower and were very rusted and started to stain the shower wall with rust. I simply replaced all of them with stainless steel screws. No more rust !

Hope you're ok with us stealing/copying your ideas - mounting clips in the garage today for the ladder - thanks for sharing!

Installed mine yesterday - first trip with it is Thursday!

Mainly things that were on my old coach - camping this weekend and then off to MIS a week and a half after that, so had to get it ready. I have plenty more in the barn waiting to go on, but time isn't on my side right now so will get to them when I get there!
