I am trying to find halogen replacement bulbs for the ceiling fixtures. The bulb replacement number that is in the owners manual is not a number that I can find anywhere.

Does anybody know the base number for the larger two prong side mount bulbs?

Also has anybody replaced these bulbs with LED bulbs and if so, what is the correct number for the replacement LED bulb and are they bright white?

I have been able to replace the smaller two prong side mount and I know what the base number is for them (they are over the sink).

Any input would be appreciated.

If they are the same ones as in my MH you can go to Home Depot and get them. They are 12 volt 10 watt bulbs and hang on a display with lots of other halogen bulbs. Take and old one with you. The spacing of the two pins is a key that prevents you from getting the wrong one. Do not touch the glass of the new bulb with your fingers because tthe grease your fingers leave on the bulb will cause them to fail.

richard......You may want to think about replacing them with LED bulbs. I replaced all of mine with the soft white LED's. The light is good, they don't get hot and draw very little power. The only down side is the cost. They're about $7.00 - $8.00 each.

Diplomat Don....I want to replace them with LED's. Where did you find them. The only ones I have found have the smaller base. I went to Home Depot and they did not have the larger base. I compared the base and it looks like it is the same as gy6.35 base not the jc base of the lights over the sink. My fixture for these bulbs is a 5" round and the sink ones are 3" round. I am having a difficult time locating these darn bulbs...
Does anyone know the Monaco phone number. Right now my book is in the coach in San Antonio. I am anxious to get it back and would like to have bulbs in hand when I do. It is suppose to be ready on Friday and we are suppose to leave for NM on Saturday....as usual not alot of make ready time.

We used some of the G-4 12smd warm white discs, 1.00 each plus shipping off ebay and we have been pleased with them. To install, I had to bend the wires a little to get the disc to fit flush with the under counter lights. Good light and no heat produced. There is a variety of these lights on Ebay, yes you takes your chances maybe, but we are satisfied with the ones we did get. Also bought a pair of T10 13 smd warm white for over the dinette table. They also work well. Hope this may help. Happy Trails Bert

I've got HR 2008, found bulbs a Lowes lumbber stores in the landscape lighting area, don't remember exact numbers. Be careful on prices, depending on what they are marketed for, they can be as high $6.00 ea to a two pack for $4.95, same bulbs!
