Where can I buy a new wet bath?

I am looking for an all in one shower/toilet/sink that is preferably fiberglass or plastic. Anyone know where I can get one? It will save me the hassle of building one myself.

AFAIK, all wet baths are custom-molded for the application.  While there may be only a handful of companies molding them, each RV manufacturer is supplying either dimensions, templates, or molds.

To buy one ready-made, you'd have to settle for one of the designs already in the market, and persuade either the RV maker or the fabricator to sell it to you, or find one at a surplus dealer.

On this last possibility, I would check with the surplus outfits in Eugene, OR and Elkhart, IN (several listed in the archives here, or a Google search will turn them up).  With several manufacturers going belly-up over the last year, you might just get lucky.

Remember, stock wet baths are tiny.  Typical applications are truck campers, class-B's, and small light-weight travel trailers.

Good luck with your quest.

Did that include a sink and a mount for the toilet, which is what the OP is looking for?  Or was that just a shower?  I suspect the former, which is a much more complex mold, is a bit pricier unless it is surplus.
