LED replacement for the AC fan light (in an Alpine)

My Alpine has almost all DC powered lighting, but the living room has what I assume is a residential ceiling fan. I would like to replace the lights in it with LED lights to cut down the heat generation.

I've opened it up and it looks like a scale model of a normal bulb. Smaller thread, smaller body, but not a candelabra shaped body, a normal bulb shaped body. It uses 2 of them at 75W each.

I'm at a loss what to search for, 'cause I have no idea what they are called.

Any ideas on search terms?

Is the threaded base candelabra? The body of the lamp doesn't matter, it is the base. I have 2 candelabra bulbs in my have in the stick house, there is little selection about 40 watts, and nothing that is dimmable over 40 watts.

What about a fluorescent bulb? MUCH cheaper than LED.

I have purchased some from http://www.superbrightleds.com/ before.

E12 is the likely base size, but I can't be 100% certain for your fan.

They have dimmable and non-dimmable LEDs

BTW I have no affilation with superbrightleds. Just a happy customer.
