Upgrade puck lights to LED

I have a 2011 Bighorn model 2985RL. I'm looking to upgrade the puck lights to LED. Does anyone have a suggestion on where to source LED replacements? And does anyone have a suggestion for how to remove the existing ones? The springs seem real tight.

Thanks,

Mike Cassidy

Easy to remove those lights. Just pull them out. They are held in by that spring, but be careful of that spring snapping your fingers.
Think mouse trap.

yes, the lights just pull out, but sometimes the springs may get hunk up on the styrofoam insulation, which only means you need to pull harder... but gently... sometimes a twisting motion helps as you pull... and you dont have to remove the light base "cans", to convert to LED.... just replace the bulbs in them...

https://www.superbrightleds.com/ is a dependable place to buy quality LED bulbs, which thay follow a standard when advertising the color intensity and lmen output of what they sell..... its about the cheapest place around to make sure you get what you order.....

for all the "Can" lights in my trailer I bought the G4, side pin, 390lumen, "natural" color disc lights, and very happy with them.... when i turn on the overhead lights, I want it to be bright like daylight... and it is. if i dont want bright, i will use the mood lighting.....

I also used natural color, LED strip lighting to line the entire perimeter of the under side of the overhead kitchen cabinets, and it was the best improvement, as no matter how bright the interior is, when cooking, there was always a shadow. but not any more....

thanks for the update...
the lights are a little more expensive that we would like to pay, but given that that will last forever, and they are good lights, its well worth it.... glad you found them to your liking....
