For shower tent brackets I used click link:
ebay.us/sxuChL
While traveling across Australia i wasn't happy with my shower setup, so i got a beer out the fridge pulled up my camp chair and stared at the side of my truck for about 2 hours trying to figure out a better way.
This setup is what i came up with.
The quick pitch shower tent is expensive around $750 dollars so I've found a cheaper KINGS version of this tent on Amazon.

A Great outcome ! Most times than not, it takes a few trips to sort stuff out but even then, there is always tweaking. I've been thinking of something similar for my gull wings when I build them (I have a Suburban & I'm going to remove the rear windows) I haven't found a good size shower tent yet so I was thinking of mounting my shower rose to the gull wing door (& like you, there would be a light there too) & having either a drop down shower tent or sides that attach to the gull wing & I would have my shower unit inside or at least swing out when in use. Necessity is often the mother of invention 😉(I guessing it took some "thinking solution" to come up with that? What I mean is, some of my best ideas have been when relaxing with a drink to work stuff out) Well Done! 👍

I like the idea it inside your canopy, you said about a velcro for the hose and I was thinking why dont you attach the velcro to the little showerhead bracket you have? Might even be less chance of the bracket getting lost also?
@RADFilmsQLD Жыл бұрын
That is a frikin great idea. I was brainstorming the shower tent position, and I really didn't.t like the idea of hanging the ugly thing behind the canopy. I would develop your design further by mounting handges instead of the L brackets so you can swivel the thing back up to the roof and get it away from the door opening. I will make a video about it when I get to it.

Do you know how it's setup at the moment, it's hanging a little over your tray? Have you considered fabricating a sliding mount (ie. drawer runners) so that you can pull it out when you want to use it and it clears your tray, then push it back when packed away?
