Alternative to traditional ceiling lights.

Hi...
We are looking for replacement lighting for our RM. Basically she was a McDonald's static party bus with strip fluorescent tube lighting.
This has now all been removed and we are left with oversize and damaged rouns aperyures where the original lighting once was.
Rather than attempt to patch up & replace with original we would like to put in either domed lights that cover the now over sized apertures or any other ideas!
Any suggestions/ideas that allow for the curvature in the bus roof would be a great help..
Thank you
Lara

My bus number (if any): RM924

Re: Alternative to traditional ceiling lights.

Hi Lara;
There are some LED lights of various sizes you can get now, I have used them in the destination box, but they would suit your purpose quite nicely. I got mine from EBay, but I'm sure there are plenty of suppliers in the UK that would assist you nicely. Good luck!!
