So made some progress today on toilet installation. Cut tile cover piece. Also made a 1/4 thick aluminum doubler plate to catch two of the three rear mount holes in flange. This was put under plywood. Was able to finally test fit 320 toilet. Quite happy so far. Will finish up tomorrow. Will remove all the other toilet electronics, valves, timers, etc.

Cut pipe to length in flange and cut another tile to fill gaps better. Test fit everything then painted and sealed everything applied antisieze to hardware and assembled  Still need to grout later today. Pipe hangs 1/2 inch lower that tank seal grommet. No possible way to migrate  above seal.

Grouted. Pulled all the old electronics out. Installed a 30" feed line to toilet. Installed toilet. Flush check okay. Curiously the water drops straight down with no swirl. Quite robustly. May rotate toilet counterclockwise a little to center between shower and vanity, but serviceable currently. Clean up and caulk base. Also will make a cover plate for behind were it was hacked out for other toilet, but not till we get back home from trip next week.
 What a feeling of accomplishment having that electronic toilet out of our life.
 I think the only item left on the list is the SLIDE. Not this week either.

We are picking up an incinerator toilet in Little Rock tomorrow and hopefully can find someone to install it before we get back to AZ. Our Dometic took a dive right after we bought the MH in May of this year.
Just met Lynn and Marilyn Sickel and they told us to find Scott and say hi!

So just to update the entire installation, we finished our 5k trip and Kim rated the the following. Too long for her and too tall. 7 out of 10 rating by her. She functionally preferred the original toilet. Does flush incredibly quiet and doesn't use near the amount of water for flush or clean up. I'm personally very happy with it in every way. I did retain the original wash wand and works great. I'm really glad that I didn't worry once about a failure of a 20yr over engineered potty. No electronics, no timers, no leaking valves,
Was glad i had similar tile and grout although most is covered. Having a tile saw made the cuts possible.  It wasn't as easy to make the offset work but once ABS was offset a inch and the two inch offset flange it fit. Used propane heating boiler on abs. The 320 toilet was delivered quickly and included the reusable seal. Lowes supplied the supply line.  I was concerned about reading that the Dometic 320 does not have replacement flush peddle but is well protected yet still very accessible for use. Repair is made by unit replacement. Water valve does have parts available. Still need to put patch behind toilet on wall, but you really don't see but still will. If you have the short U320 Foretravel this is a option that although involved is doable. Would repeat without question. 👍👍

Does the longer bowl hit the shower door?

Yes very similar to the old. I guess in thinking about this I recall mine did have a failed strap that allowed it to hit on my unit. If you were to retain strap I guess it could be shortened? I can say I'm 230 lbs and the toilet in no way interferes with access to shower if that makes sense
