Source for replacing led lights

I’ve found several sources online for buying led lights for our 5th wheel. However, I was wondering what places the forum has had good success with. In particular with buying IP65 waterproof lights. Thanks

Your bulbs are under covers (or should be). Unless you're planning on submerging the RV, it's probably not going to be an issue as long as you're using automotive bulbs.

I have converted two campers to LED and always used just a regular automotive bulb.

I did find thelat they're not all the same. I don't like the ones that basically have a wire wrapped around the end as the contact/lead. The ones that have copper/tin contacts on the board are much better.

This is what I used for my last set on the exterior. They make them in both Amber and Red.

I've only ever had to replace one so the quality is good. I also use them on my truck.

The red ones work best under a red lens and the Amber work best under an Amber lens. The clear ones work too but they give the colored lens a washed out appearance.

For the big bulbs, LASFIT is a great bulb.

I've bought a number of lights from Super Bright LEDs. Always got good quality products from them and the prices are hard to beat.
