We have a 2014 Keystone, Cougar 327RES with two decorative LED strip lights at the bottom of the front cap. (some call them eyebrow lights)
Ours are weathered and no longer functional.
Looking for some insight on how to remove and reinstall a new set of LED lights.
We have not been successful in finding any info on line or on YouTube.

You can go to Amazon and fins the right size light strip in any color you want. I replaced ours, They are usually put on with a sticky tape and a dab of silicone at the ends. Vey easy to do. Mine were 14 inches long and took about an hour to do.

Done it MANY times and these are the best ones I have used for my cap eyebrow lights AND awning lights
https://www.superbrightleds.com/cat/single-color-flexible-led-strip-lights/ or just go to E Bay and type in RV led light strips and go with the cheap ones that will last about a year your call AND by the way when wiring up the new eyebrow light do one wire at a time or you may let go of the whole wire and it will fall back into the cap NOT FUN to fish back out.......how would I know that???

Thank you for your feedback.
I assume the only access is through the docking light in the center of the cap.
Are these quick connect electrical or the old style twist and electrical tape.
FUNNY no one has ever made a YouTube video showing the process.

I have done it so many times over the years that I forgot how they were originally wired to the led strips but anyway now I just twist them together and seal it with liquid tape or you could solder them as well as butt connectors are too big as far as fishing out the wire that fell in I had to drill out the little hole a little bigger in the cap and then used skinny extra long tweezers to grab it but it took about an hour to do this i lucked out the wire did not fall any farther
