    I am sure a GD dealer can assist you for the replacement lights, as to lights on or off ,I leave mine on in lue of the bright outside porch light on my new Momentum and if I had my flag with lighted pole that would remain on all night. I am very courteous of my neighbors and believe the bigger issue with etiquette is individuals walking through your campsite .

    LOL!!! We agree and when we use them, Boondocking when we take our Pup out.
    If in a RV PARK, only when we take pup out again at night so I can find our Rig easily, LOL.

    Christmas lights on all year long, on the ground, on the trees in their spot. Get me back to Boondocking asap. RV Park is a nice short visit for us.

    I care, I have accidentally left my front porch and work lights on overnight and I was not happy with myself for being the guy that didn't care about other campers.

    I care as well. It's just that kind of attitude that ruins camping for many of us. Part of what camping (for me and many others) is to get away from people who are loud, obnoxious and inconsiderate.

    Hell yeah, I'll pile on here. Decorative LED lights on RV are now "a thing". As in the latest FAD. It's done because it can be done and cheaply. Nobody asked whether they should because the answer would have been NO!

    Q: What I want to know: Who the heck at GD thought it was a great idea to put crappy blue LEDs in the exterior speakers on our Imagine? Not only are they are stupid and useless, they are dying slowly, and flicker randomly and are partially lit. They look ridiculous. They go on whenever the outside lights are on. They were intended to be purely decorative in a cool way, where people say "Hey there are cool lights in your speakers", but they are actually not cool, as in: "Hey man, why are some of the lights in your speakers dead?". Not to mention the speakers themselves are god-awful sounding. A pair of Campbell soup cans on a string would sound better.

    Here's a thought:
    Bad idea: spending good money sticking LEDs in cheap sounding speakers.
    Good idea: spending money on speakers that SOUND GOOD.

    I couldn't agree more. I really think they did the whole thing with led's everywhere because it looked good at RV shows. Flashy.

    On the subject of unnecessary lights, what is it with keeping a flag up all night lighted up like its the frigging fourth of July? I've got a summer neighbor who has a 75 foot pole which he keeps lighted with 10 100 watt halogens all summer. This is in a rural dark sky area where people come for the dark night skies. We've asked him to please take the flag down at sunset and turn them off, and he does this but only when he is there. He leaves it up 5 days a week (Sunday night thru Thursday) when he isn't.

    I have encountered this kind of thing in and near Dark Sky parks. I am not talking about taking down flags turning off the lights at recognized memorials and in cities. Only in rural dark sky areas, as the National Park Service does... Is it really asking too much to take the flag down at sunset in these kind of places?

    I know how annoying unnecessary lights at night are. I try to keep it dim around our rig.
