LEDs lights attached connected to awning power
I want to install led lights on my awning, but don't want to have wires hanging down. Has anyone attached them to the 12v at the awning motor ? If yes let me know how you did this. Thanks

generally the awning motor is only powered when extending or retracting (at least it was on mine).
I mounted the LED strip (16.5 feet) on the coach wall under the awning & ran the wiring down the arm.
I used the same hole that the factory used to run the power the wall to the awning.
Once inside the coach i was able to use 12vdc or 120vac power.
I posted some pics and details in this thread - http://www.rv.net/forum/index.cfm/fuseaction/thread/tid/27932888/srt/pa/pging/1/page/3.cfm
here's a couple pictures from a recent camping trip (no flash) - i have a separate small set of (red) led's under the coach to illuminate or back light the steps. the step lights are not multi color & are on a separate switch.
