Our TT has the factory LED lighting in the awning. I too don't like the color. It's cool white and just too blue-ish. It is really bright after dark and installing a dimmer would be a good idea.
There is this LED dimmer on ebay listed for RVs. I can't get the link thing to work so you will have to copy and paste this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/RV-LED-Dimmer-Switch-BRAND-NEW-EXCLUSIVE-/281261224069 It looks like it will stay illuminated at night which may be good for some. I think I will look into using this dimmer.
It looks like your light(s) need to be wired by the factory so that 12 volt power is run to the switch first. If it runs to the light(s) first, then you'll only have 2 wires to the switch and it needs continuous un-switched 12 volts. Or if you have 12 volts you can tie into nearby the switch, that should work.
We have had a LOT of compliments in CGs on our awning lights.
Clicky
Thanks for the links folks. I shoulda googled it first. :S
I think one of these might work. I'll have to look in my switch box and see if I can get it in there beside (or as a replacement for) the on/off switch. Pretty sure it's a 12v strip but will need to confirm before I buy.
