311 docking lights
 

Got a port side docking light out, anyone got a line on new lights? LED would be cool. 1988 311

Company online called Truck lite part number is 80220 about 80$

Rigid Industries makes by far the brightest most usable docking lights I have ever seen. Plan on upgrading the factory 382 lights to these.

Found some direct replacement LED from Marine beam online. Took 30 minutes to replace both. Very bright, and waterproof.

Please post a link, for future dock light replacement for us Birdheads!!!

Pics and post link?

Old tread, BUT are these still the best replacements?
Update...link is dead, so I'm looking for dock light replacements for a 198 311

Looks like it's this one Tom:

Converting everything over to LED will really help with battery life when your out on the hook. I did all of mine when I first picked up mine.

So, you are currently using these:

Are there write-ups to how to replace them?

Can someone explain how to get the old light out of that housing, i gave up because i knew i would break it.

Look at my thread on my 242. I have quite a few pictures of when I did mine

Will do thanks

so, do you access the light bulb by removing the Phillips head screws on the housing on the outside of the hull?

No you go thru the cabin you should have an access panel in the front

Very informative 242 thread! We will be near each other (I will be on Perdido Key).
I did not see how to access the bulb...

Okay...I will try to find the access from inside.
I'm assuming I must remove some inside coverings/liners on a 311
GREAT FORUM!

Like stated above. Look at my 242 thread. Shows it pretty well.

Maybe you already answered but:
1) spot (25 degree) or flood (60 degree)?
2) 13 Watt or 18 Watt?

Any suggestions on which bulb:
1) spot (25 degree) or flood (60 degree)?
2) 13 Watt or 18 Watt?
