Also Jack. it doesn't have to be an aluminum skin for your plan to work, like you mentioned and asked.

HAH!!! I GOT YOU! IT WOULD STILL WORK WITH A WOOD SKIN!

For my building expertise, that's the best I can do to "catch" you in a kind of "mistake." Or mispoken, I should say.

And you know I'm screwing around here now, right? That I'm not the least bit serious?

Some people will NEVER understand my sense of humor.

If you are still in the construction phase and not retrofitting to an existing trailer, have you thought about drilling a hole down from the top and wiring it through the ceiling? I bought a 16" drill bit that is about 1/8" dia. that was plenty big enough to run two small wires to my reading lamp and the outside porch light. I clamped a piece of wood to the plywood that extended over the edge of the plywood so I could use it as a guide to make sure the bit was going in parallel to the guide. That way I ended up exactly in the center of the plywood at the point where I mounted the light. I used a forsner bit to cut a hole at the end so the wires would have a way to come out to the surface.
