I replaced all the OEM undercabinet lights in my coach with the $5 recessed ones SONICJK made available (look in the swap meet). They work fine, I got toggle switches from the heathen chinee via ebay, 4 for 2 bux free shipping. I'm in Indianapolis, coach is in Ga, or I'd put up some pix. They work fine, alls you have to do is cut a hole for them and solder/heatshrink the wireas, and switch them. I switched each side seperately, and the on over the sink seperately, one in the bath seperately. For the ceiling fixtures, I got 4 replacement LED bulbs, 4 for I believe 6 bux and just put them in the existing fixtures. Added aluminum foil above them.

Yeah, Amazon has the same 4" round warm white with 120v driver for $9. They work great and are about the equivalent of a 50w incandescent in brightness. I put 2 in the cockpit and will be installing 3 under each of the 4 overhead cabinets (switched 1, 2, or 3).
I'd buy another 40 if they became available at $5 again.

I've two left to put in the cockpit fixtures, I'm waiting till I'm home and the weather is good enough. I want them to follow the door in one position, and come on in the other, with center off.

You should make sure that all your lighting including LED’s too, inside the coach are 12 VDC powered and that includes the overheads, the under-cabinets, the Bath lights, any inside lighting. All lighting inside our coaches (2) are LED’s. The only 120VAC powered items inside our coaches are the microwave and the TV sets and associated parts such as DVD/Blue-ray and satellite receivers which I have a separate inverter to run them or use the gen or plugged into shore power except the microwave with is run only with gen and shore power. If you have no AC power you have no lights. Inverter units can make your lights work at a excessive initial cost over the cost of a 12 VDC lighting. Hopefully by the end of April I will have various lighting packages available for LED GMC Coaches. At the test market at Rapid City, SD I sold out of everything including 90 sets of 2 of the warm white replace LED’S (1141 & 1056) for your overhead lighting. I still have research to complete, but should have the packages together and on hand by Late April.
