Can The Light Bulbs In Gustafson Reading Lights Be Changed Out For Brighter Bulbs

Question:

Can I change the bulbs in the following two light fixtures to a bright white/daylight LED bulb? Gustafson 12V RV Reading Light - 5-3/4 Tall - Weathered Copper Gustafson 12V RV Ceiling Light - Recessed - 3-3/4 Diameter - Satin Nickel If I can change the bulbs, do you sell bright white LED bulbs? I also need to know the AMPS/WATTS/VOLTS for each of these fixtures. Can you assist? Thank you,

The Gustafson 12V RV Reading Light - Weathered Copper # 277-000332 uses a 1383, 12v, 20 watt bulb. You could swap the bulb it comes with out for the 1383 LED Light Bulb - Cool White # DI92VR which would give you a much brighter light.

The Gustafson 12V RV Ceiling Light - Satin Nickel # 277-000483 uses a 1139, 12v, 12 watt bulb which can also be replaced, but we do not currently carry a brighter bulb than what you'd get with the light so you'd have to source from your local hardware store.

I was not able to find any amperage draw info for these lights but it would be relatively low, especially if you replace the bulbs with LED's.
