Title: New Mirrors For My New Coach
Post by: KEB on June 04, 2021, 01:27:17 pm
I am continuing to outfit my new 2910T. So far I have installed new C metric load rated 121 Michelin Agilis Cross Climate tires with dually stems and changed out most of my camping equipment to smaller sizes to fit in the Cruiser (grill, air compressor, chairs, vacuum, etc.), updated my GPS and TPMS. I wasn't crazy about the looks of the Ramco mirrors after seeing the Velvac ones on coaches at the dealer. So I purchased a set of the Velvac ones from PC that they have been installing since their 2020 model year. 

I was hoping I could just do a mirror only swap and use the original wiring and switches. Not true. I had to change out all of the harnesses including the main one that runs between the two mirrors and the control switch wiring. (Sorry didn't take any pictures.) Running wires through those rubber door boots is not fun.

In the end I think it looks better along with the new mirrors being 4 inches wider on each side.

Interesting comments.

Phoenix installed Velvac mirrors for oh so many years.  My 2007 has Velvac mirrors.  I wonder if Phoenix had to install Ramco mirrors due to lack of availability during COVID.  I heard there was a shortage of all kinds of RV appliances and such.

My 2015 PC has Ramco mirrors.... Long before COVID

Does that other bay door open?  Can you move enough stuff out of the way so mine fits on the other side of the garage?

It does open, but that space is currently occupied by a 1968 Dodge Charger that I have been restoring for way too many years.
