I got tired of looking at all the stuff visible on the ceilings. I visited the Country Coach factory with my coach to get a ceiling upgrade to an 06 to 09 ceiling fixture to no avail. Therefore I made a Lowe's "" Home Depot project that took a weekend and some help from my wife. Several other cc owners have seen it and greatly approved.
Items needed: 3/8" plywood, 2" x 2" lumber and industrial Velcro, vinyl covering, contact cement, 1" x 1" brackets, Assorted screws, 1 1/4 inch by 1 1/4 inch drywall corneing. Tools needed: 6 inch circular saw, screw gun , and measuring tape.
If anyone is interested, I'll be glad to help you avoid my trials and errors.

When you entered the coach on the ceiling you saw a row of nine fluorescent lights and three air conditioning units.
In about 06 Country Coach covered those up with moulded fiberglass panels which greatly enhanced the coaches. Since I was unable to obtain any participation from Country coach I designed these easy to do, plain but factory looking pieces.
