    Backup camera and wiring

    HI,

    Though I would post this here on this particular forum, because I have a 2017RL that I have been trying to figure out where to put a switch for the back up camera. I went through about 20 past questions and have learned a lot. However, I saw a YouTube video today that showed where an owner found the prewired back up camera wiring above his lights where the two recliners go. I went out a bit ago and tried to pull down one of the lights, its spring loaded somehow. I didn't want to be pulling too hard till I checked on this forum. How do I actually get the lights to come down? They were at an awkward angle without a ladder and it was so cold I decided to give it up for the day.

    Two more weeks we are headed south to AZ and the area for a couple months. Whether I have the switch in or not. AZ or bust.
    Thanks in advance.

    The puck lights have two powerful Springs that hold them in place. To remove them, pull down on one side until the spring on that side clears the hole. Then it is easy to slide the other spring out. A word of caution... Those springs are as strong as a mouse trap and don't feel very good if you get your thumb in the way.
