Question Ad-A-Light

Howdy!
I would like to install a 12v light to help light up the steps at night (old eyes) Can I just spice into an existing switch, i.e. outside light switch?

Did you look under your step? You may already have one, but burnt out. Many of the coaches have them from the factory.

Yes there is one there (can't get the lens off to replace the bulb ) but that's on the outside. We need it inside the coach to light up the interior steps. At night, it's too dark. I already fell once. Didn't get hurt but spilled my drink!!!

My coach came factory equipped.

The short answer is yes, you can just splice in.

I got a couple of real nice LED strips, about 3-4 inches long, those would work real well for lighting the step well.
