Light up your clear plastic grab bar
Leroy,

Have you pulled the grab handle out yet? I illuminated the one on
my '90 and the handle had a place where a standard 12VDC bulb would
fit. There was a "knockout" under the handle, on the side of the
coach that was made to hold a socket. Not necessary now to make a
hole big enough for the flush mount socket as your idea of an LED
would be better and would probably mount right into the grab handle
base without any drilling of the handle. I remember that it took
some doing to snake the wire down but I was able to connect it to
the step light switch overhead so the handle came on with the setp
lights.
