There are a number of issues surrounding converting to LEDs. I just started a post to clarify some of the issues, and CharlieM was kind enough to post a ton of information. Check this post out - hope this helps:

All campers use an amber light for the porch light, theoretically they don't attract bugs as well as the white... maybe.  Personally I think it is less harsh on the eyes.  White up front for the utility light makes sense since it gives you more total light.

Just curious why Forest River used an amber light for the porch light versus a white light for the hitch light?  Anyone know?

Sorry Craneman, I have been out of town for a few days longer than expected. The LED bulbs that I bought have been discontinued, that sucks as I was going to pick up a couple more. The bulbs were 194-10 SMD Wedge Base. I did order 4 194-6 SMD Wedge Base bulbs, I decided to replace the ones over the table and the bed with these that are a little brighter. Goose

Thanks Craneman.  I was afraid I was going to crack the lens cover.

Many of us purchased off of EBay. Inexpensive and quite adequate
