Question:
Can I replace the 1157 incandescent tail lights on my 2018 Grand Design Reflection 303 with LED bulbs? If so, what kind would you recommend?

Expert Reply:
In general, yes, most incandescent bulbs can be swapped out for an LED. In order to do this you need to know the bulb type such as 1157. That said, when replacing incandescents with LEDs you must use the same color bulb as the lens in order for the light to show through properly. For example, if you were replacing a tail light bulb behind a red lens then you would need to use part # ARC63FR.
