Recommended Replacement Dome Lights For A Mobile Vet Clinic
Question:
Hello, I am the practice manager for a mobile vet clinic. We are looking to upgrade our lights in our van. Currently, it is pretty dark in there. I am interested in 6 LED ceiling lights. I have attached a picture of what we have now and the rough estimate of the dimensions. Do you have anything that could fit our needs? Thank you so much in advance

The closest option I could find is a bit smaller than your current 6" x 12" light fixture, but having installed other sizes of this light I can confirm that they make a world of difference when it comes to illuminating a room.
The Opti-Brite 12V/24V LED RV Dome Light # OPT58FR is 13-1/2" L x 3-15/16" W and has an effective lumen rating of 1,500 lumens. To give you a comparison the # ILL07COB you were looking at only has an effective lumen rating of 354 lumens. They are a surface mount design that will just require two screws to mount and is low profile at just 0.56" inches in height. I will say that you'll want to use screws with a small head, otherwise the head will interfere with the snap-on trim.
Since your current lights are surface mount there's most likely just a small hole where the wiring pokes through the ceiling so swapping out for a different size shouldn't be an issue. You will want to pick up some butt connectors # DW05714 to connect to your wiring. I've attached a video below where I install a smaller version of these lights in an enclosed trailer to help guide you in the installation process.
