OK- finally had time to post some of the mods we have been working on this winter. First- the 19 inch TV/DVD combo was an easy mount by adding a piece of plywood into the microwave cabinet to support the swivel mount. The hard part was finding the right mount that would easily come off for travel. Here it is before we put the front panel back over the microwave:
Here is the bracket that stays on the wall, how it attaches to the TV and the box it came in:
And here is the view from the side:
We will run the elecric on an extension cord and when we hook up to cable, we pass the cable cord through the slide which is very handy.

We changed out the "ironing board" table legs to RV pedestal table legs- easy off to convert the table to a bed. We drilled them into a piece of plywood covered with carpet so the table moves easily (stole that idea from someone!). While we usually keep the bed made up full time, we do occasionally use it as a dinette but hated the legs it came with. On the left you can see our 3 inch memory foam mattress with all of the bedding on it just rolled up and away to the side.
Speaking of table- I LOVE my low profile sofa table purchased at Pier One:
Also for extra kitchen counter space here is a cutting board purchased from camping world that fits perfectly and the Dometic cover made for our burners. We had to mount it by drilling two holes in the rear, but it then flips up to act as a back splash:

And here are the curtains- 2 pairs of kitchen tiers purchased at Bed Bath and Beyond (we left the miniblinds in all areas but the 'bedroom'. And finally the 4 tier bathroom organizer on a spring loaded pole purchased at WalMart (it is not easy taking pictures in that bathroom!). Can't tell from the picture, but it really is out of the way even when sitting on the throne.

Great job. We have the same table leg only we have the tripod for the bottom. It doesn't attach to the floor so it is easy to pick up and move outdoors. Thanks for sharing.

OMG, I just LOVE MODS! I really like all of those but the stove cover and the low profile table is great! I'm going to have to check out our local Pier One.
I saw the bathroom organizer in Walmart last month... Its on the list of things to get in the spring.

I have taken down the "thingys" on top of the windows, but to take down the mini-blinds. I made curtains, and installed curtain rods in the "thingys" and put them back up. Just two small screws on each end holds them up. But in our pod the mini blinds brackets aren't on the end of the blinds, and are silver metal latching type affairs. Rob
