Try here: wedge base bulb at ledtrailerlights.com
It's a warm white emitter (not quite as yellow as incan, but close) with about 250 lumens output.

I must be missing something here (wouldn't be the first time). Is that not a halogen bulb? Or are you looking for an LED bulb to use as a substitute for the halogen?


read the OP post he clearly says he wants a LED replacement bulb

The only incandescents I've come across with that wedge base were in the strip of parking lights across the front of my '90 Mercury "Taurus equivalent" whose model name escapes me.

They were halogens, so had to be very carefully handled to prevent getting skin oils on them and they were always falling out of the bulbholders. The interior lights on my Georgetown are all either single or dual 1141 bulbs, with a cylindrical base.

We just replaced some 921 wedge base bulbs with LED's from SuperBrightLEDs. They don't give off enough light over the kitchen sink, so we had to go to Lowe's on Sunday and get 3 new Xenon bulbs.

But the LED halogen pin style do give us the light in the puck light fixtures, we need in some areas. I picked CW (cool white) because we don't like the yellowish cast.

That's kind of funny because when I was re-outfitting our new Itasca with the G-4 based bulbs for those puck lights, I ordered up two with the cool white to see how we liked them. Well, the War Department was not happy with the "Cool White's" cause they were too white and bright. So, I ordered up eight warm white G-4 base, 5 LED bulbs for all of our puck lights and she's way happy and so am I 'cause it's way easier on the batteries and there's plenty of light with no heat coming off of them.

We had the same type of bulb in our MH. I tried several LED's and could not find anything that really put out the kind of light we wanted. Finally found some from here:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Warm-White-Ligh ... 2a17e86e4a

The light they put out is just what we were looking for. The light over the table takes 4 and these make it quite usable. It took about 10-12 days to get them from China, but worth the wait.
