Internal Lights - Too "harsh"

[HerrDoktor]

I'd like to make the internal lights of my Cali less "harsh". The current LED lights in the doorway and over the cooking area are bright white and not even remotely "cosy".

Is there a way to swap the bulbs/ fit some sort of filter to facilitate a cosier atmosphere?
Thanks

I don't know if it's something that can be retrofitted to an existing setup but my Westfalia lights are all on a touch sensitive dimmer switch and can go from operating-theatre-harsh to faint-candle. Might be worth looking at if it would just involve swapping a switch?

Alas "electrickery" is not my forte. Swapping a switch would no doubt result in the vehicle combusting in a ball of flame!

Id say you need to replace them with "warm white" Leds if the Cool white is to harsh . . . . .

warm white colour temp - 2700k to 3200k

Aah. OK. So they can be replaced. I'll check the manual to see how I get to them
Thanks

. Having read the manual [really great fun. Not!] there were no instructions how to gain access to the interior bulbs. Headlight bulbs: Yes. Rear LED bulbs: Yes. Internal bulbs: No
Does anyone know how to gain access to the bulbs pls?

Which ones.....got a pic?

Haven't got a calli myself...... but I'm sure others on here will be able to advise on getting the lights out and swapping them for a warm white version.

Not an actual picture of my van but identical nonetheless. Scroll down the page until you come to the pictures that show the kitchen sink. You can see the 3 lights directly above it

Save swapping bulbs out, flick the plastic cover off the lights and insert yellow film paper. Dims it right down. Cheap fix as well.
