The water carrier on wheels is awesome. It is the envy of many at the water spigot. I have city water, but I mainly camp at sites without electric or water.
I installed 12v light fixture that I got at vintage trailer over the dinette. I had the mount where a gas lamp usually goes. I decided to go with electric because I really run most items on a solar power charged deep cell battery. It is great to have another light.
I finally installed a grommet so I have a third pole on my awning. Works much better.

Wanted to ask where your awning rail is on your Metz? Is it on the top or roof or just below the roof?
Ours didn't come with a awning rail and we want to put one on and it would be hard to bend if on the side, just above the door, but on the roof it could be done.
How big is your awning?
Thanks!

I have a rope awning and the rail is attached to the edge of the trailer. You can still get this type of tracking. Vintage Trailer Supply sells rope awnings or you can get everything you need at sailrite.com. I bought my sunbrella fabric on ebay. I got my poles at walmart. The poles aren't the best quality. After each use I wipe them down with WD40. I didn't do this the first time and they rusted. I added a third center pole to mine and always wiped it down and it hasn't rusted at all.
Oh, my awning extends 10 feet out. I have been in major rain and it never leaks. I wouldn't use anything except Sunbrella.
