Expert Answers about Chevrolet RV Exterior Lights


  • How To Permanently Install the Solar Powered LED Porch Light DG0115
  • The Solar Powered LED Porch Light for RVs part # DG0115 is not designed to be mounted on the exterior of an RV at highway speed. However, if you were to secure the light using a wall stud on your trailer then I don't see an issue doing so though I do recommend you go to the hardware store and obtain two 2" sheet metal screws at the minimum to secure the base. Once you find the stud you will want to install one screw leaving about 1/8" between the wall and bottom of the head to slide the...

  • How To Vent A Furrion Propane RV Range
  • The Furrion Propane RV Range with Glass Cover # FR37KR has vents built into the door and on top at the back just like a residential stove/oven. If you wanted to vent it to the outside you would use a range hood like the Furrion Ducted RV Range Hood with Light - 12V # FHO23SACRBL. A range hood would require an opening in the exterior wall and a vent like the Ventline Exterior Wall Vent for RV Range Hood # V2111-55.

  • Recommended Silicone Sealant for Installing Optronics RV Porch and Utility Light RVPL7CB
  • The Optronics RV Porch and Utility Light # RVPL7CB has a full-size metal backing plate that will protect the internal electrical components from moisture but if you like you certainly can use a thin bead of silicone rubber sealant like # LT37464 (grey), # LT37467 (black) or # 0160297 (white) around the perimeter of the base to provide additional protection. Hardware stores usually carry a range of color options including clear silicone.

  • How To Turn the LED Porch and Utility Light for RVs On and Off

The white wire on the light will be for the ground and then the black wire will go to the switch. The switch will also need to be grounded and then you will run the other terminal to a 12 volt power source.

  • Can Stromberg Carlson RV Bunk Ladder be Used on Exterior of RV
  • An RV bunk ladder is only designed for the interior of an RV for bunk beds, and due to that it doesn't have a way that will safely be able to mount to the exterior of an RV or have bottom support legs. So what I recommend instead is the Stromberg Carlson RV Exterior Ladder # LA-401. This ladder is 99-1/2" tall x 12" wide but the length can be customized because the legs can be cut so you can make it a shorter length like the bunk ladders. More importantly, it is designed to mount to an...

  • How To Install Furrion Marker Light RV Side Cameras On Trailer With Corrugated Side Walls
  • In regards to the Marker Light RV Side Cameras part # FCE48TASL, they would indeed need a flat surface in order to mount. If you have a trailer with corrugated side walls then you'd simply need to make some sort of spacer to allow for the light/camera to install level. I suggest some metal washers under the mounting holes.

  • Replacement LED Light Strip for a 2016 Winnebago Travato RV
  • Yes, the Opti-Brite LED Strip Light part # ILL70CBAWN is an exact replacement for your 2016 Winnebago Travato RV. The process to swap this out is super easy. All you need to do is pry the chrome housing off with some sort of pry tool which will then reveal the two screws that attach it to the trailer. Once you remove these screws you can cut the two wires behind the light and then use part # DW05744-5 to attach the new light. The above process can then be repeated in reverse to complete...

  • Range Hood Vent Recommendation for House on Wheels
  • Installing a range hood like the part # S0721-20GC-F-1 wouldn't be hard. It has mounting brackets that would attach it to the kitchen of your trailer right above oven. You can attach it to the bottom of cabinets or a microwave. You would need to use an exterior wall vent like the part # V2111-13 as well. You would not need to have a vent route that goes from the hood all the way to the exterior of the trailer. You would just need to use the vent cover for the hole you cut so that moisture...

On the front panel of the light strip, there are two small panels on either side that pop off to reveal the mounting holes. Simply screw the light strip in from the front side anywhere that works for you and replace the panels when finished.

  • Can Support Pegs on Stromberg Carlson RV Exterior Ladder # LA-401 Be Trimmed to Length
  • The support pegs, or stand-offs, included with the Stromberg Carlson RV Exterior Ladder # LA-401 and the Surco Universal Exterior RV Ladder # SP501L can be trimmed to length. Since these are universal-fit products designed to work in many applications it will be necessary to do some drilling and trimming for installation. When you are installing mounting brackets and support pegs, make certain that all screws are fastened to the RV's blocking or the sub-frame on the roof.

  • Ladder For Four Winds 28 Foot Trailer
  • If your Four Winds RV does not offer an exterior ladder on the back it is possible that the reason is because there is no suitable mounting location strong enough to support a ladder. However based on my research it looks like most Four Winds RVs have exterior ladders. When installing mounting brackets and support pegs for a ladder like the install components of the Stromberg Carlson Ladder part # LA-401, you will want to make certain that all screws are fastened to the RV's blocking or...

  • Is Drilling Required for the Marker Light RV Side Cameras for Furrion Vision S Systems
  • The Marker Light RV Side Cameras w/ Night Vision for Furrion Vision S Systems part # FCE48TASL are not designed to match up with existing mounting holes as they can be used in place of all different types of side marker lights which do not all use the same mounting pattern. That said, the hole that is used to guide the power wire to the exterior of the trailer could be reused but the two small mounting holes for the light would likely need to be drilled, or at least one of them but this...

  • How to Find Studs in an RV for Installing an Exterior Ladder
  • Yes, you will need to know where the studs/blocking are within the walls of your RV prior to installing the Stromberg Carlson RV Exterior Ladder part # LA-401. The studs could either be metal or wood, it just depends on what the manufacturer used at the time. The easiest way to find them would be with an electronic stud finder rated for both metal and wood. However, if you look for the rivets that join the panels together that should give you a good idea where the studs are as well. If...

  • Can the AquaFresh Exterior Water Filter System Be Installed Inside the RV
  • I contacted the manufacturer in regards to using the AquaFresh Exterior Water Filter System # AF77FR under your bathroom sink. All they were able to tell me was that the AquaFresh Exterior Water Filter System # AF77FR should be used outside of the of the RV, not inside. Typically it is installed in an exterior compartment. They unfortunately did not provide any insight on why it needs to be installed outside.

  • How Does the Opti-Brite Interior Strip Light # ILL70CBAWN Wire to an RV
  • I'm glad you didnt ruin the LED's I'll have an update sent to our site so that the product description will include a wiring color explanation. In the trailering world white usually represents ground and black is for the positive side. I had it explained to me once that its because those are the colors usually associated with building wiring and that transferred over to the RV's and trailers.

  • What Is the Micron Rating of the AquaFresh Exterior RV Water Filter Kit
  • I did some checking on the AquaFresh Exterior RV Water Filter Kit part # A01-1131VP and the micro rating is 20. The water filter kit reduces chlorine, sediment, and bacterial all while improving the taste and odor of your fresh water supply. The filter will need to be replaced when your water flow deceases as that is a sign that the filter is full. The AquaFresh Exterior RV Water Filter part # A01-1132VP can be used for this. The Camco RV and Marine Premium Water Filter Kit part # CAM40631...

  • How to Install the Exterior RV Shower Box Part # 324-000061 on a Pop Up Camper
  • Yes, you can install the Exterior RV Shower Box part # 324-000061 on your Palomino 2100 Pop Up Camper. However, if the camper did not come with an exterior shower from the factory then odds are you do not have the plumbing installed to hook up the water lines so modifications would be required.

  • How Does the Replacement Exterior Pop Up Roof Vent Open
  • The Replacement Exterior Pop-Up Roof Vent # RV-626-062 can only be opened from the outside. To open the vent you're going to need to rotate the handle down or up and push. These aren't terribly hard to open so if it's not still opening you probably have a defective unit.
