Hi, I will check these out too. My socket [plastic] washers are melted. I might buy socket repair kits. In the old days, these washers were fiber or Bakelite.

This type is what came in our 2010 Classic. However 16 watts per fixture is no power saver. There are either 3 or 4 of them. A least they are individually switched.

I have those fluorescents in my Classic but I switched them to strip LED lighting.

Those bulb replacements are quite a bit cheaper than other sites.

We made the switch to LED a few years ago just to take the pressure off the battery.. I miss the warm light of the old auto bulbs,, but would never go back.. They seem to improve the light output of LEDs every year it seems.. The last ones I got for our overhead reading lights in our living area have a nice bright warm light.. My early LEDs cast a blueish light..

Does anyone know of a vendor that sells complete kits for individual AS's? I would like to replace all of ours including the outside entrance light. If there isn't a "complete kit", does anyone have the total # of lights for a unit like mine and which bulbs to order?
We just picked up our new-to-us 2010 28' Int'l Ocean Breeze y-day, and we're pretty stoked to have joined this great community!
Thanks,
Gavin

Count your lights and contact led4rv.com. He is a streamer and quite knowledgeable. He will have good advice on preferred "color temperature" for each application. Congratulations and see Y'all down the road.

Hi, time will tell. Today I received my 20 LED's for my trailer. They were selling in packs of ten so I ordered two packs. Ironically 20 is exactly what I needed. I like the color and brightness of them. Two of the twenty were defective. Out of the six sides and end that the LED's are on, two of the lights were dead on one side. I sent an E-mail to the seller to see what happens next.
