New recessed lights

One of the things I like about the new Airstreams is the interior lights.

Sleek, contemporary recessed lights that you would expect in a modern home. So, this was a must in my Airstream. And surprisingly, pretty easy to install once I figured out where to locate them. Best of all, each light only cost me $6!

I planned this out for weeks before I made that first cut into the interior aluminum skin. It's not like drywall that you can just replace or patch. The fixtures won't take a permanent place in the ceiling until I paint.

The lights looks AMAZING! I think I will pinch the idea.

Are they all operated by one light switch?

Keep up the brilliant work and blogging,

The lights look great! I just finished gutting my '67 overlander :)
Where is it that you got the puck light from?

Thanks

Sorry, just getting to answer this.

@Lucy, The living room lights are on one switch, the kitchen lights are on a switch, the hall lights are on a switch and the bedroom lights are on a switch. So 4 switches total.

@Matt, I bought the lights from MarineLights on ebay
