Abstract
The invention relates to a snap-on frame for recreational vehicle light fixtures wherein the frame is formed of a synthetic plastic material and is added to the fixture to improve the appearance, and may also be employed to convert a fixture capable of being recess mounted to a surface mounting. An annular frame molded of a synthetic plastic semi-rigid resilient material includes protuberances on a skirt portion circumscribing the fixture edge and the dimensions of the protuberances are related to the fixture base dimension such that the mounting slightly distorts the normal frame configuration to frictionally mount the frame on the fixture base by a snap-on connection.
