    If they are LEDs they may not come apart.

    Yours look like they are grommet mount lights that just pop out of the black ring.

    FYI, GD has an online parts lookup at https://www.granddesignrv.com/owner-...y/parts-lookup

    Jkwilson, that parts look up is good to know. Unfortunately it appears you have to go through a GD dealer to get the part.

    Many of the parts are available elsewhere and some times GD identifies the manufacturer which helps. For example, those bulbs the OP is looking for are a very common part and should be readily available at a truck stop or other business that deals with trailer parts.

    I agree with @jkwilson, with a little detective work you can usually source the same if not similar items elsewhere. I just ordered some American Technology Components wall switches from a reseller on Amazon. The same with the LED ceiling lights, same Facon brand from Amazon. Ebay is another good source for RV parts. If you can't find an exact match on the brake light you may want to consider a similar style but it may be less expensive to buy 2 new ones that are the same. The cost may be less than 1 new one of the OEM from a dealer.
