Teardrop Camper Renovation T@B 320 Before and After
This is the story of my renovation of a 2012 T@B 320 U. I bought this adorable camper from a local RV dealer, and got to work renovating it. You can see a walkthrough of this camper here.
Here are some photos of the T@B 320 before renovations. As you can see, it was really cute to begin with, even the cushions were not terrible. The metal backsplash was one of my favorite design elements of this
One of the first things I did was to replace the incandescent light bulbs with LED bulbs. This video shows how to replace the bulbs on the 2021 T@B 320. It may be helpful with other RV’s as well. I think this was an easy and effective upgrade. LED bulbs use less energy so if you are trying to conserve on battery power installing LED bulbs is the way to go.

The next project was to recover the cushions in the camper. I had done this before in my pop-up camper. I am not a great sewer but it using the video below I was able to do a fairly good job of recovering the cushions. I took the weirdly shaped corner cushions to my local tailor to recover because they were way above my skill level.
The fabric was a little crazy, and I left the store without it the first time, but I couldn’t stop thinking about it and went back again the next day. I’m really glad I did.
Here are some images of my finished renovation. I was going for a National Parks Theme and I think it turned out great. The images below show the recovering of the back bench (using staples!).
The next thing I wanted to do was get rid of the huge table that came with the T@B. Since I was able to sleep “wheel to wheel” by putting the back cushion down flat, I did not need this table to make up the bed. I purchased a Lagun table mount, and found a beautiful live edge table top from a local craftsman.
I also found some cool mid century style vinyl decals from a shop on Etsy and put them on the outside of the camper. I think this turned out great! They look amazing and they are easily removed if you decide to go with a different design. Here is the listing on Etsy.
I have since sold this adorable camper and downsized to a 2021 T@G 5-Wide, you can find out more about that camper here.
