36CKTS Light Switch and Trimetric Install

Got tired of opening the cabinet door to turn on lights, so moved the island and LED light switch to outside the cabinet. Easy to access when first coming in the coach or coming from the bedroom. Also installed the Trimetric so I can determine my energy usage as I plan for our solar installation in January.

Where did you get the black switches from?

The ones in my 2013 36CKTS are white.



The switches I want to move are the white ones on the bottom left in the control center. I to would like to move out by the thermostat with black switches.

Finished up the mod this morning. Thinking about adding a third switch in the middle. Then all ceiling lighting would be outside cabinet.

I see you already got your switch, but I bought mine on amazon for $10.
