So I'm beginning to think about how to install a hot water shower system in my 200 and am wondering if anyone has looked at this sort of thing already and has any opinions on such a project.
I do not want to install a heavy water tank on the roof or deal with propane. Nor do I like the idea of showering by an open engine hood.
My vision is to install a heat exchanger and pump system in the engine bay and run plumbing lines to the rear of the vehicle. There, I could have a detachable shower handle and hose, as well a second hose that gets screwed into a water tank--maybe one sitting nearby in a hitch-mounted basket.
