Toilet emergency...Help! - Howard O. Truitt - 09-02-2007 09:22 Scott, I purchased the Thetford Aqua Magic Style "Plus" China Bowl Toilet. The "Plus" is the taller unit which gives a little more hanging room for men. I had to turn the floor flange to line up with the new bolt holes. I also had to cut a little off the bottom of the cabinet doors and mirrows behind the toilet. I left the hinges as they were because they don't show. I ordered mine in Nov. 06 and paid 175.00 + 19.95 S&H. I ordered thru Ebay Motors: search for Aqua Magic Style Plus China Bowl Thetford RV Toilet, the Ebay vendor was RVExit. [Colaw RV - Web dba RV Exit, 10389 Cimmaron Road, Suite A, Carthage, Mo. 64836.] Recieved shipment from warehouse in Atlanta in two days.

What model did you use? I wouldn't mind an upgrade, but need to know what to use. I assume some models won't fit. Scott --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "Howard O.

I am glad now that I have both, electric and water emergency shut-offs right by the toilet where they are needed. Toilet will not quit cylcling...? shut of electric. grab beer andInvestigate Toilet wont shut off and wants to overflow...? shut off water, grab beer and investigate. Makes life a lot simpler.
