    that was Dicor BT-1834-1 Butyl Seal Tape you pulled off from behind the lights. I'd recommend going back and putting that under your plates. You still want to seal the plates unless there was a rubber/foam seal on the plate that I missed.

    Running a video cable under your RV is a good opportunity to take a close look at everything down there. I spent a good afternoon zip tying wires under and learned where a lot of my components were at. Running a video camera in the rear is essential. You really can’t see back there at all while driving.

    Maybe mount the rear camera on the side of the RV but facing backwards so you can catch what's going on on both behind and in traffic on your side. Not sure if that's a viable option.

    Hey Eric, have a question about your rv generator. Do you run 100% Gas all the time in your rv. You probably already have checked into it. But some older small engines have problems running on ethanol gas. Maybe, maybe not just something I thought of when getting gas today. Good luck! Rock on!
