Tom sounds like you don't need much input the only thing I would add
When we were going to rebed our wood hand rails it was suggested that flat head machine screws replace the wood screws holding the rails in place. A nut in a hollow on the bottom of the rail and a nut and washer on the inside of the coach roof. Down side is plug and extra work upside is through bolted hand rail. After removing ours we decided to have stainless steel hand rails made for much $$$.
