I don't see any obvious way to get access to my ceiling fixture in the bathroom. Before I pull it away from the ceiling I thought I'd ask if there's a way to get the cover off to access the bulb. It appears to get to the bulbs I need lower the entire fixture.
As always ,thanks for the forums great advice.

Squeeze the long edges together and the cover will pop off. You can then access the fixture screws.

I'm not sure what kind your coach has Keith, but mine has two types. The flat ones with the diffuser panel is pretty easy- just pull down from the long edge, than the other side. Simple cabinet clips hold them in. The other light covers that are "raised" are removed by squeezing the sides evenly with both hands long the length.; they will pop out of the housing base. If you have a Thin-Lite porch light there are screws on either end of the housing. Once these are removed, it is a matter of sliding the lens cover out.
I recently upgraded all of mine and these are what is on a 2000 model.
I have two types as well. All the under cabinet lighting has the panel that pops off by squeezing. The other two have the wood trim. Sounds like I should pull the long end from both sides. Didn't want to put too much tension on it and possibly break something. Thanks
If, by recessed, you mean the ones with wood frame that have no visible screws, and flat diffuser lens, the actual fixture is built into the ceiling. The frame/lense assembly is held to the ceiling with some clips like these: Amazon.com: Camco 44203 Cabinet Catches Side Mount - 6 pack: Automotive (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0006I0NSK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&tag=foreforums-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957) On ours, the clips are on the front and rear. Just pull on the ends with your fingertips and it should come off.
Mine were difficult to remove stuck together for twenty years. The clips mistered mentions is what mine had and have all been replaced due to being brittle.
