my kids and intoxicated friends keep kicking the switches when entering and exiting the rv. Always blame somone else.... Has anyone come up with a creative cover or an idea to cover and protect these switches?

Thanks

Buy a tent and threaten them with it..

That panel is on my very short list with Winnie. It NEEDS illumination! It's me who always messes them up trying to get things turned on in the dark.

Home Depot sells plastic wall plate covers.They could be mounted with two way tape or screws.Its on the to do list for me also.My bedroom slide switch is on the wall as soon as you walk into bedroom,everyone still thinks its the light switch.

Hi peter, that's one weird problem. Hope someone has some ideas. I'm stumped. Had the grankids for a full week in the MH and never had that problem.

Drop a little rubber water faucet washer behind light switch. It's child and drunk proof. An 1/8" rubber band type bungee cord around the other two switches prevent movement of those two switches. Neither item should present a choking issue for the drunks and most kids know better.
