Good Morning All
I run my coach in the summer with the generator running and the two roof mounted a/c units to cool coach.
I fabricated an overhead console with blower and vents to bring cool air forward and blow on driver and passenger. Getting ready to mount it between driver and passenger overhead but find no way to hang it from ceiling. I spoke with my go to guy Jim B. and he says there are no good anchor point in the center of ceiling. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. It seemed like a good idea at the time to make this unit.
thanks
Marcel

Any chance you could post some photos of your set up?
I did a shelf for CB radio and storage.
Mounted visors below it.
I too will try and get pictures posted.

Hi there Rob
The unit when completed weights in about 9 lbs. U used a 3" bilge pump and
vents from a mazda auto. The console itself is a console from a 2004
chevrolet suburban with small compartments for sun glasses. door opener and
a tissue holder and two map lights. Made some brackets this after noon that
mount to the plastic reiforcements in the roof structure. Should be good
and stout will let you know how project came out and get you some pictures
