Newmar Headlights

Any idea about '08 Kountry Star Headlight replacements. I would like to go to LED.

I think you first need to contact Newmar to see what auto or truck manufacturer supplied the headlights because I'd be very surprised to find out Newmar has its own proprietary lights. When you get the stock part number from Newmar you should be able to determine if there's an LED upgrade for the lights.

Look at the light for a identifying number. You can then google, or check Amazon.com for suppliers and any thread posts that have been made. I hope this helps.

On my 2007 KSDP the headlights were the same as the Ford taurus.

Have a nice day - Darrel

Thanks for the info. I figured that someone had alredy found the auto relationship to the Kountry Star. The '07 and '08 have the same font end and headlights. Thanks again for the information.
Have a Merry Christmas!!!

Right now nobody makes a true DOT approved upgrade for "euro" lens. Only thing you can do is put in a better bulb, make sure your wiring is proper and your lens is clear.

Here is a recent test.
