I have an 86 SunLine... Different company I believe, but mine is wired for 110 in the roof for the AC. Has a blank out plate on it, my friends has a duplex outlet in his.
I can check the book if it is the same. Let me know.
Good Luck and enjoy the new camper!

I had a sunlite Eagle SE which is the long box equal to yours. I contacted Sunlite about installing a roof air in the vent and they said keep it under 80 lbs, and it would be more difficult to crank up the top due to the increased weight. As far as the wiring, It is not wired with 110v to the top, so you would have to do it yourself. An option which I considered was to by a small window AC and mount it through the back window next to the door. Several people have done that. A LOT LESS $$$$, as you can buy those units nwe for $75 - $85, and much easier to wire.

I didn't have to make that decision cuz my wife just bought me a NEW Alpenlite Cheyenne 900 with all the bells and whistles as a retirement gift! Gotta love that gal!!!!!
