Upgrade dual ceiling dome lights

Has anyone upgrade their dual dome ceiling lights to LED ?
Do any match the dual dome lights hat are there ? I have not seen any to match if I chose to replace just one fixture.


I had a dual dome ceiling light in the bedroom burn out and nearly caught my trailer on fire. There are small metal plate behind each 921 bulb in the fixtures on my trailer except the one that melted the fixture and blackened the ceiling wood. The metal piece that should protect the area for heat is not there.

I need top replace the whole fixture if I can find the correct one to fit on my 2011 Cedar Creek Fifth Wheel 36RD5S.

I also may replace the bulbs with LEDs

I had found these that look similar. I can't tell exactly.

I went with the pancake bulbs in my dual dome lights linked on another board in the forum, from China, and replaced 10 bulbs in all for about $44.00...the ceiling lamps located double lamps from front to back; not the sides. I can tell you they are very, VERY bright and certainly less hot than the originals. Downside...DW hates them and wouldn't let me install them overhead in the bedroom, bathroom mirror or where she reads. They turned already blond/pinkish wood cabinets into 'pinker' colour (her words, not mine). She is pre-disposed to hating first generation replacement...this didn't help. Will need to do more research to find a warmer looking option.

I have also purchased LED replacement bulbs that were recommended and linked to from this forum. What was delivered was ten, very white, very dim bulbs. LEDs are great and I have them in almost every light fixture in my home. Do plenty of research prior to purchase.

M4 get web site for LEDS replaced all interior lights. Pay attention to color level. A close match to the standard bulbs would be warm 3000 to 3500. The higher the number the brighter and whiter the light. 5000 or higher
