We have total restored our 2808 C Hilo and have either changeed or replaced or repaired almost everything.Items that set it apart from other Hilo’s are Regular size stainless steel refrigerator and freezer like in a normal RV and for this we Extended the roof here with aluminum cover. New AC with digital thermometer that could be tied into the furnace but we did not tie it in. Removed the night stand over hot water heater and Converted the bed from Queen to a 40 x 80 and a 30 x 80 in the opposite direction of prior position and has flip up to access storage underneath and some also access from out side . Also under the 30 inch one outside has an outdoor kitchen which stores our black stone grill and accessories with shelves. New mattress like would be in a house = very comfortable. Also provisions to insert to make 1 large bed, New AM/FM, USB, Weather band , and aux. hookup and mic. Radio with switches to switch from bedroom speakers (each with shut off switch) and to added outside speakers and volume control for these plus separate volume control for kitchen speakers plus added speaker at couch and there is an amplifier to control the volum for this one and also the external on by the tv = helps to be able to hear the tvbetter when the AC is running. TV‘s hook up in bedroom and dinning/living area each from an A B to switch from either cable or antenna. Back flush hookup for gray & black tanks with ID plates. Backup lights. Backup camera = control in our pickup which also does record the video both to rear of camper ,rear of truck to ward the rear of it one at the hitch and 1 toward rear side traffic and another to the front of the pickup., tire gauge monitors with repeater to send to monitor in truck with light indicator for connection when plugged in, 2 batteries, jumper block to battery if need at front of access for the hand pump. A jumper at same place if need to bypass raise lower switch. Blue neon lights on the awning roll. Cushion fold up dining chairs at the dinning table instead of the wooden ones. Hand railing to enter RV. Nice mural on both sides. Propane tanks with gauges. Added shower curtain between commode and walk/bath sink. Spigot at front outside for water access. Easy drain spigot @ hot water tank, grease buddies. Some pictures attached as could only put a limited amount. The one with the refrigerator was prior changing the roof covering from what was installed from plexiglass,which made like a sky light as was not good to an aluminum covering
