Wanting to upgrade dinette light and others

My husband introduced me to Camping World a couple weeks ago. We fell in love with these beautiful dinette lights and considered replacing ours as well as a few other fixtures. The stock they had were damaged and were being sent back. I went onto the website and they weren't listed (maybe because it was a new item?). I found them via google image search made by ITC but ITC's website doesn't have a purchase option.

Are there any great websites for upgraded lights? If I order them from the store I have to pick them up and that's a 1.5 hr drive. Plus they weren't cheap there. I expected to be able to google and find options.. not so.

Any suggestions?

I checked Amazon, Ebay, CampingWorld, etc

How do you turn a regular light to 12v? I am so in love with the ones I saw at CampingWorld but can't find them online anywhere and $80 per light is expensive in my book- especially when it's not a neccesity and there so many other items we could use that money towards.

Would love to know how to do that.

Yes and NO HEAT,the RV Bulb type are "Power Robbing ,Heat producing CRAP"! Easy to buy a 120 V fixture and remove the Guts and install LEDs inside! Have you ever seen Burnt 12 V fixtures that have turned Brown/Black from the Heat! Youroo!!
