Led Bulbs

Hi I have a 2014 Sunseeker 2860DS. Just wondering if you can take the bulbs out of fixtures and put in leds?

Yes. Do a search here and find which ones worked. Some cheap Chinese LEDs are so noisy you will not be able to use the radio or TV if they are on.

Just a heads up, there all made in China, but the ones that have more diodes, etc, seem to put up less interference in my expierence. Ebay, lists tons of them, just look over the product images to see the circuitry, brightness, etc.

Yes most all made in China, but the "Cheap Chinese" ones are the culprits, The problem is the HF power supply components on the module.

The RVGeeks channel on YouTube recommends LED bulbs from here Wedge Base RV Replacement LED Lights but they are pricey. I have a 2860 DS as well and hoping for a cheaper alternative. Found some on Amazon.com but lots of reviews say many of them burn out quickly.

Check with superbrightleds.com. They have phone and chat that can help with selecting the right ones. They ship from suburban St. Louis. Prices are good and quality is great. I have replaced all the inside bulbs and the outside marker lights with their products.

I second using superbrightleds.com. I have been using them for years in my cars and previous motohomes. I've never received one defective and all are still working!
