Hard-to-find Bulb

I have a 2005 Fleetwood Southwind 32V. There are reading lamps above the driver and passenger seats. One of the bulb bases is broken and I cannot find a replacement. The bulb is clearly marked FTD+C 12V 10W. I don't know if this is a coach item or chassis item. Suggestions?

    Thanks for the responses. I'll pursue those options.


    Man, if that's true, that you're needing a 10W Halogen, with a G-4 base, that's too bad. I just threw away, about 15 of them, some still in packages 'cause I converted to LEDs all throughout the coach a few years ago. And I replaced all of those high heat, high watt usage bulbs. I couldn't give those things away. Darn.

  • That is a standard G4 base halogen or xenon lamp.

    You can buy them at any home depot, menards, or lowes.
    Just make sure the package says 12v 10 watt.

    The halogens are often 20 watts.
    The 10 watt xenon gives the same amount of light with half the power used.
