Thumbs up Lights on the Starway

At the Houston RV show this year I saw several units with "night lights" in strategic locations. After trying to take a header down the stairs when the pooch wanted a late-night walk I decided to install some. I was going to install a dedicated switch but wound up tapping into the porch light. The hard part was drilling that first hole. I've installed the 2 in the picture and will probably install a third at the top step.
