Originally I’m guessing they’d both be the same. I’ve opted for two four inch round ones and led powered so they are so much brighter and use so much less battery which is part of the aim if you’re doing any camping.ive insulatedmy front ceiling and pop top ceiling with one inch of celotex and this helps quiet things down a fair old bit too. Then I’ve got a 3mm plastic foamex ceiling over each, glued and into the rails on the edges too. For the edge rails , I’ve used tiling edgeing strips and mine are chromed effect but you can get a miriad of choices from Senor B£Q to choose from, either put up with self tappers or pop rivets. My full length pop top has a tropical sun rise printed on it and my cab ceiling has a picture of an original ceiling with a superimposed sun roof with yet more palm trees to give a nice effect
