I'm not sure if there is a listener of the stepUp and StepDown but you can externalize the PLUS and LESS buttons of the input number using:

document.getElementById("myNumber").stepUp(5); //increase the value +5
document.getElementById("myNumber").stepDown(5); // decrease the value -5

So you can finally achieve your objective!

NOTE: Be aware that IE11 and EDGE doesn't implement stepUp / stepDown. On my case I just remove the + and - icon and leave only the input number field. Hope EDGE die soon...
