It's a set of strip lights I sourced through my job. They are generic LED strips that gets used on pontoon interiors.

I need to get the upholstery on this, but I finished the cabinet that will cover the battery charger, I decided to make this box out of 80 gauge aluminum instead of the 60 gauge I had been using for everything else, that way if we kicked it in our sleep it wouldn't bend or get crushed.. Definitely made it interesting to do the bends! Took several hours, but I did get it done.

And behind the access plate is the battery charger:

It was getting late, so I didn't get to finish this, but here is the cardboard pattern for the lower panel. It will be easily removable to access the battery behind. Hoping to get that part done tonight.

The Quality Craftsmanship continues!

I especially like the super crafty extra Gas door feature you installed on the passenger side for your shore power! smile

Thanks guys.

I didn't get quite as much done last night as I wanted to, but here is the current status of the right side. The bottom rear section comes out to access the battery and wiring in that corner.The piece that goes over the fender is mounted solid and I managed to do it without putting any holes in the wheel-well. It is attached at the wall, but rests on rubber bumpers. It is strong enough to set on.

Not sure exactly how I'm going to do the front section yet. I'll work on that tonight, as well as the left side which should be much simpler to make.
