What light bulbs in Sunseeker ceiling fixtures?

Goofy question, I know. We ordered a 2300, and have plans to take it out dry camping pretty much right after we get it. I need to order some LED light bulbs on ebay. They come from China and take a few weeks, so I'm going to order them now. I've used this supplier before, and really like the bulbs.

The only problem is, I don't know for sure which bulb bases the fixtures have. I think it is the wedge type, which uses the 921 bulb as shown below. Can anyone confirm? Also, how about a guestimate of how many bulbs there are total in the ceiling of a 2300? Thanks!

914/921 series bulbs. A great US source (bulbs probably from China) is superbrightleds.com They have many different brightness and color temperature choices. I have replaced all of mine. Some (like over the bed) I used dimmer bulbs for a more subdued feeling at night. If you are not sure what to buy they are helpful on the phone or chat. (I have no connection with them except a satisfied customer).

I used superbrightled also. Outstanding customer service. If I had it to do over again, I'd get mostly the smaller (cheaper) ones. I can barely tell the difference between them.

I will suggest Command Electronics fixtures or bulb upgrades. They are the original supplier for most of the fixtures for the Forester and Sunseeker.
I had two incandescent fixtures in my exterior storage galley. I was going to just upgrade the bulbs to LED but thought better to upgrade the entire fixture for a couple bucks more since the LED lamp plate is supported as it should be. I am so impressed with the lumens output and the color.

Bulb kits can be found here:

The folks at Command Electronics are super nice and provide awesome support.

I will be buying from this guy.
10x T10 194 921 Bulb 24 5050 SMD LED Super Bright DC12V Warm White Z | eBay

I've bought a few times from him. Quality at a good price. $4.40 per bulb in this example, with free shipping. Just be patient for the slow boat from China. Typically ~3 weeks on my purchases.
