04 Monaco Diplomat 40’PDQ headlights

Have a 2004 40’ Diplomat, we love this new to us pusher but I am looking for suggestions on upgrading the headlights and fog lights. While the currents ones work as they should, I’m not entirely happy with the quality of the light. What can anyone recommend for a better light preferably plug and play replacement.

You don't need to replace the headlights unless the lens is foggy and not allowing light out. If it is, on my 04 Diplomat DST the headlights are from a 2004 Buick Century...
OEM# 10319777
-Partslink GM2502182
-Holannder 114-506L
-TYC 20-5198-00-1

Otherwise, just reach inside and remove the lamps and replace with higher output lamps like you would on any car. Lots of options out there.

I would highly recommend you contact Daniel Stern Lighting <dastern@torque.net>.
He is a wealth of information on headlights and ways to improve visibility. Including the best replacement bulbs, relays to keep the voltage up to the lights and a number of other things.
