As we travel down the aged roads here in the Northeast, hitting a bad spot or pothole, jars the lens off dropping it to the floor. Does anyone have any "trick" to keeping them in the light fixture?? As a last resort, we started putting a small piece of tape on them to keep them in place. That just adds insult to injury because we wind up needing to remove the sticky glue off the lens! Grrrrr!
Thanks,
Dave

Couple of small dabs of clear silicone sealer holds them in place and it's easy to get off when the bulb needs replacing.

Tagalong, Donavon has it right. I have used the silicone dab on my storage box lights as well as those inside the motorhome. It really works well and you cannot see it which is even better.
Remember just a little dab.

You're right Bob, how many times have I knocked off the lens when moving stuff about in the compartments!
Thanks,
Dave

I replaced all three of mine. Cost was $7.25 each from the following. None has fallen out since then. Was really annoying.
