Here are pics of some of my trailer modifications.
I noticed that some folks don't like their couches. I didn't like mine until I added new rotating tables on new cabinets at each end and got rid of the original table. I used sturdy lazy susan rotating hinges. The rear cabinet holds a small garbage can. The tabletops came from Winnebago.
I removed the shelf above the bed and put in two small corner shelves. I couldn't sit up and read with the original shelf. The new shelves are great for phones and/or coffee or whatever.
I installed a 100Ah LiFePo battery inside using the existing wiring and installed a simple shutoff. Two folding chairs are stored at the original battery location. Haven't run out of power yet on numerous camping trips here in the west. I carry an extra 150Ah power station just in case. It charges the whole trailer and runs the microwave. It is not big enough for the AC.
There is now a 200W inverter behind the TV with four USB ports. It supplies power to the TV and other 110V devices when boondocking. It also shows battery voltage.
Not shown is an additional 200W solar panel on the roof and another 200W inverter in the forward lower right pass through. I use this to charge e-bikes. I also changed out nearly all of the original lights to softer, dimmable ones.
