Which type is it the straight tubes can be directly replaced with an LED replacement tube available on Amazon and eBay.
or you can follow these instructions

If its a "U" tube then then genuine tubes are expensive but see club shop, there is no direct LED replacement tube or follow these instructions;

Yup here you go

My only comment would be that the LED's shine downwards rather than all around, hence the roof itself doesn't get lit and looks darker, whilst the light below is probably brighter, I found it seemed to make the van appear darker overall so on my COB panel replacements I added some theatre lighting material that diffuses the light more which improves the situation.
