Woo Woo ! - Movin' On

Recieved an RV box and light indicated switch from Colaw's today - Installed same, and am now ready to button up the front.

First Pic is the Reese Dual Cam I fitted over the weekend.

Second is the RV electric box and the light indicated switch. I will use this to switch the Univolt on and off. When the trailer is here at the house I like to keep it hooked up to 110, but do not want to keep the Univolt buzzin' all of the time - battery overcharge and all of that.

Third Pic is a close up of the switch ready for the cover. I cut the hole in the wall by drawing the outline of the box on the wall, drilling a 1/8" hole at the four corners and each mounting ear (top and bottom), then I enlarged each hole to 1/2". With the 1/2" holes in close proximity, I was able to cut the box outline with a set of Aviation Snips. Final installation was accomplished with 4 pop rivets.

Fourth Pic is the switch installed in the wall under the dual outlet receptical. This location is on the front street side, where the forward curtains meet the side curtains - this position seemed to be the most logical for convenience and access.
