Does anyone know where I can find one of these Lights. Internals on one of mine are broken. Maybe someone replaced theirs for something new? Sorry it's sideways.

On ours the the hollow threaded portion was broken along with some other small parts.
I found an old fashioned hardware store (Do it Best) that had several drawers of lamp parts and was able to repair it.
Before that I had searched online as well as eBay but couldn't find what I was looking for.
I used a new LED replacement bulb and my old lamp is working well.

Vito.

Is that store in Tucson or maybe do they have one in Mesa or Phoenix?

Pretty easy to find if you cannot repair it. Another poster talked about a simple hardware store like Tru Value or something. They usually carry parts to fix these. If not, a company like this has stuff: https://www.rvupgradestore.com/RV-In...show=28&page=3

Here is a site that has lamp parts

If you can at least find a similar part and do a general google search you might get lucky.

Thank you Jim,

No luck and they didn't answer when I asked if they could suggest anyone.
Here is a picture of what I need. It's broken in the picture.

I have no idea what those parts are for, HOWEVER I do know if its metal perhaps getting it welded. Since owning my rig I have discovered that sometimes it just boils down to repairing is easier than trying to find new stuff. However thats the tactile part of my ole brain talking.

Are there any identifying marks on the lamp itself?

Looks like it might be repairable by drilling out the old pieces and using a screw the right length. You could put threads in the two pieces to be able to adjust to the correct width and if enough room use a nut to lock it in position and keep it rigid.
