Lights in slide on Fuzion 310
I just replaced almost all interior lights with LED's and do not know how to access the lights in the top front of the living room slide. I was able to do the ceiling lights in the slide, just not the front. Anyone have any ideas on how to access them?

I just bought the same trailer, and was interested in going to led myself. Do you have a list of bulbs you used?

Bigdogdodge -
If you do a forum search on LED lights, there are a ton of posts with LED model numbers, places to buy them from, etc.

The light fixtures used in the various Keystone products vary from year to year and model to model and even within the same year and model. It's not really possible for any of us to know all the different light fixtures and which year and model they were used in. The best thing for this type of question is to post a pic of the item along with the inquiry.
If you'll post a pic, I am sure one of us can tell you how to open it to replace the bulb.

Here is a pic from my phone (not really great) of the light on top of my slide. I can post a list of the LED replacement bulbs when I get back home this weekend as I didn't bring the list with me. I did go through the LED thread on this forum and did buy from one of the recommended vendors.

2 screws that hold the glass on then pop lights out. I replaced the entire trailer with LED. What a difference, I can have every light on the trailer turned on and my inverter fan will not turn on. Before i would turn the ceiling lights on and the fan would kick on. LED's are a must if you dry camp, plus the Cool White is so much better! People have complained that they do not like the blue light...It's because we have all grown up with the ugly Incandescent light with old yellowish color. 5 - 10 years from now everything will be the cool white..Well as soon as LED drop in price.

There are no visible screws or any on the backside. I still can't get access and don't want to force the thing off.

I can't tell from the picture, but there may be some wooden or cloth "buttons" somewhere on the fixture. They will come off if gently pried and usually hide a screw head.

I don't see any buttons or anything else that might be holding it on. When I pull in the slide tomorrow, I'll check to see if there is something behind the fixture that I can't see right now.

If that doesn't work, time to call the dealer's service department and see if they can help.

I took a look with the slide partially in, and there are no visible screws or openings at all on the back side. The interesting part is that the bedroom slide looks exactly the same, but it has two screws showing that I assume hold the fixture on. Also very interesting is that there are no lights behind that part of the bedroom slide. I am going to take that part off of the bedroom slide to see if it gives me any clues on the living room slide.

I bought all my LED's from 2011_led on EBAY and these are the numbers:
G4 ones in the small round fixtures: 10pcs G4 12-5050 SMD LED Bulb Warm White AC/DC 12~24V #YB
1156 bulbs: 1pcs BA15S 1156 1141 SMD bulb 13-5050 SMD LED,Warm White,...
921 bulbs: 10pcs 12V Dome Bulb 36-1210SMD LED,Warm White +Adapter(BA...
I think that I should have cut the leads on the G4 bulbs about 1/3 to 1/2 off because they didn't fit as good as I would have liked (the leads were much longer than needed). On the last two, I figured it out that I should cut them and did so - they fit a lot better. Easy to snip off part of the leads with diagonal cutter. May or may not go back and make that mod on the other 18 I put in.
I don't see much difference between what I originally had and the new LED's.
