The original dome light Part No is 1141 and are 0.7A so any LED brake light that draws 0.1A should work

The fluorescent light part no is 12" F8T5 and is 8W so you need the LED bulb that draws 0.1A that replaces it but you will have to do some electrical work to disconnect and remove the fluorescent ballast

The map lights part no is T5 and are 2.7w so you need an LED replacement light for those

With this info you should be able to find what you need on Amazon and eBay to do the LED conversion

I had very good luck with these from superbrightleds.com:
Rear overhead reading Lights: Item 921-WWHP15-TAC  6.95 each  warm white. Each fixture takes two bulbs
Pop-Top light: Item 1156-WW18-T 9.95 each warm white

wherever you buy, you probably want to make the color temperature is warm white.

Hi all,

I just ordered all new LED lights from LED4RV.com and I strongly recommend them! I've ordered from them a few times when getting LEDs for my Airstream. Dan is an incredibly knowledgable guy and was able to help me find the bulbs I needed for my 2000 Eurovan EVC. Here's what I just ordered - I'll post some pics when I've finished the installation.

4 X "reading" lights for the above the side door and rear view mirror.

2 X "Festoon" style lights for the driver's side and sliding door "on open" lights.

1 X "Ceiling" light on the main roof

1 X Strip light*

*They don't carry LED tubes because "They cost more, give less light, and are harder to ship." Instead he carries strips, and even showed me where to hook them up (see image below).

Hi there, you can look up the bulb sizes here  (https://www.camperid.com/electrical-lighting.html)or in Sylvania bulb checker (https://www.sylvania-automotive.com/apps/vlrg-us/Vlrg/).
These are the 2 sources I normally use.

I ended up changing the original fluorescent lights for an LED light.  The cover on my fluorescent unit was hugely yellowed so LED bulbs wasn't a solution for me.  I actually fitted LED tape inside the fluorescent housing initially as a stop-gap measure.

The problem with the LED units is that I couldn't find anything the width of the fluorescent units.  Ended up building carbon fibre cover plates and fitting the LED strips to that.

Due to the fact that I am rather fussy, the LED units I completly rebuilt!  I liked the light chassis, but they had touch sensitive buttons (hate the things) and daylight LED rather than warm white.  I modified them with new, super bright LEDs and a proper switch.

The lights I got from here:

The pop-top light diffuser was OK so I put LED stip in that
