- LwiddisExplorer IIVery nice!
- ScottGNomadThat's a danged clever solution - nicely done!!!
- Nice project and good job.
- anutamiExplorer IIIMan, your camper is clean!!!!
do you have a link where you bought the light? - kohldadExplorer IIINeat idea tapping off the fridge power.
But have to ask why you didn't just use a light with integrated switch and mount it to the camper itself between the vents? Then it would look like a factory installation and one wouldn't have to do with wires when you need to remove the vents for inspection and cleaning? - mike_kellieExplorer II

I think we all try to minimize penetrations through the body of the camper and this is a nice alternate. I installed lights for similar reasons under both windows of the sleeping area. I was able to tap into the reading lights and actually put a button rocker switch for either on, off or motion only within the base of the original Host fixture. I did have to drill 2 small holes in the camper body for each small gauge harness and then mount the 2 fixtures. I made sure to seal everything.
It's nice having the lights available and my wife has control of hers (drivers side) if needed. Nice mods deltabravo - jimh406Explorer IIISeems like cool idea, but do you leave your outside lights on much? Also, the picture/video doesn't show enough of the TC to make it clear what you are lighting up to me.

I would have mounted the light on the Filon between the vents (the backside of the skin is very accessable there and the lights come gasketed anyway. Still, a nice addition. jimh425 wrote:

I rarely use outside lights.
I'm lighting up the area on the right side of the truck.
