I bought some LED lights from Ebay but the metal piece that plugs into the socket is too small. I didn't even realize there were different sizes. Where can I get some inexpensive LED lights for my TT (I own an MPG, not RPOD). The MPG forum isn't very active so hopefully I can get some good answers here.

I'm sure Camping World sells them but I don't want to spend $20/light.

Here is the description on ebay where I bought mine.

Another reason why I don't use that place.  http://superbrightleds.com has them.  They probable won't be cheap but they will be good.  Others will post other places also.

I finally bought some this year and have been pleased.  Like Terry, I like the superbrightled place.
I bought the 6 LED "bulb" and am happy.  Some may prefer the 10 LED "bulb" for a little more light.
 
Rather than buying for the whole camper (15, in my case), I just bought enough for the fixtures that I actually use - over the sink, bathroom and, dinette - 6 "bulbs" in total.
 
There are some who have found some very inexpensive units on ebay and may chime in.
 
Don't worry about owning an MPG....we welcome everyone here......you are just as valued a member as any other.  Please feel free to post often!

Hmmm... are you sure they are the wrong size and or the wrong adapter? I don't think there are different sizes of the T10 wedge...

I bought these:

They work fine. Very happy. Sure looks like the same thing, except I went with 24 leds..

I know this doesn't help you any; but these look like the same ones I bought on e-bay (from a different vendor) and they work fine. In the picture I used the adapter in the middle.

Go on the MOC owners forum (Montana) And search led they have lots of threads on that and a member is buying large orders direct and selling them for his bare costs plus shipping. They are way less than any others I have found. Good Luck!

I have just finished replacing all my lights with this:



I found them on eBay and am pleased with the light.

Rpodcamper, followed your thread to the led lights, is bulb a direct replacement for the #921 or the #194 ? my 2011 RP-172 has 4 roof mounted lights, 2 over stove and center, 2 on back wall over dinette area, 1 each over road side of bunks and a single 194 in the shower/bath. The lamp sockets (command electric) hold 2 bulbs each, except the bath, a single 194, how is your configured.

I ordered the 36 cell LCD's from the eBay vender. They should be here in a week or so. I will post some pics once they arrive and I get them installed.

on my 171 i have both double (Over the bed, Over the Frige, as you walk in) and singles (2 each over the table, Bathroom, sink).  For the doubles I did need to push the lamp socket apart a bit to point to the sides.
