    I like the light idea, so I may look into that. I can likely pull a 12v lead from the front pass through lights.
    Keep in mind that those exterior lights are only 3.5" tall. You stated that the hole was 4" x 1.5" and from the picture the it looks like the 4" measurement is from the top of the hole to the bottom so these lights might not completely cover the hole.

    I had considered that issue...I was maybe thinking the angle could go toward the frame (i.e. rotate 90 degrees) to provide light around the powerjack, batteries, and propane tanks.

    Have the lower front section covered with diamond plate which will cover the hole and provide additional protection against rocks, further accidents, etc.

    What is on there already is pretty close to diamond plate...it is all metal, maybe 3mm thick with a texture to it.

    I'd either take it to a auto body repair shop or small aircraft skin damage repair shop where they rivet a small patch panel over the hole with a seal.

    So I went with the an "added feature" and added lights. The results of yesterday's handiwork.

    Love the light approach. It is almost ideally located, not to high and not to low.

    Very nice. An accident turned into an added feature.

    Yes very nice. Add a motion sensor and now you have a security system.
