While I'm not sure if you absolutely need a double regulator I just got one
at the local RV store for $19 with the plastic cover.  Singles are not much
less and I don't know if you can get the cover.  Why screw around with
propane? Keep it like was from the factory.
Just my $.02

I always thought the reason for the double regulator was
safety...something about keeping the full tank pressure from getting into
the vehicle if the regulator fails.  I may be remembering wrong, though,
or we may be talking about different things.
