Hi Everyone,
Can someone give me advise on changing the LED cap lights on my 2023 Solitude 5th wheel?
Does and don'ts. etc... My cap lights are mostly burned out after only a year and they are the wrong color. I was going to call Grand Design and get their input. My trim and awning LED lights are more like a bright white and my cap lights are more yellow which I want to correct when I change them out.
Youtube makes it look pretty simple but wanted to check on the forum anyway.
Thank you in advance my friends,...

Were the cap lights always yellow? If yes, it's probably because those nose lights are not much liked by others around a rig with them and yellow is (most likely) less obnoxious than white would be.

My cap lights are all working after 6 1/2 years. Guess 'cause I don't use them. They may be mounted differently in a '23 but mine are glued on. You could carefully use a razor knife to get them off but watch out for pulling up the paint mine had come loose in two spots-glued back down & did paint touch up).

Most of them are just LED strip lights that have sticky tape holding them on, then the wiring goes through a hole in the cap.

Pretty straight forward replacement once you get the old ones off.
