StrikinLightnin, are these lights adustable like the stock lights, or are they stationary?

They adjust with a ball swivel in the back of the case.
I spent some time looking for a replacement spreader light
and found these in Apache and Pantera as well as some other race boats.
They put out a lot of light and have held up well.

I have had the lights brake in our fountains also, A friend of mine just bought a 2003 29 fountain that has lights that do not have the pivit that the old style lights have ,and we replaced ours with the short style that the 2003 has. They do not have as much adjustment but they likht up the engine comp and do have a slight adjustable head. Although one of the new lights had a wire that came loose frome the factory, we had to take it apart and solider it back together but they work fine. The price is steep for what you are getting.

My friend made me a set of light bases that look just like the factory supplied Guest 412 lights except he turned them out of aluminum. A couple of other people saw mine and then wanted a set for themselves. He paints them white, but I had mine powdercoated ($14 to have them and my battery cover powdercoated). He put a slot in the bases so you don't have to cut any wires to install them. They actually look better than the cheesey plastic bases, and they have held up quite well. I've been trying to get him to make these and sell them, they are really nice!

US1 - you ARE the man.
How many upgrades/fixes have you done so far. Seems you are ALWAYS doing something. How about some pictures of all this work ?

Thanks Boss! My props are always spinning.
I thought about taking pictures of the light bases, but in all honesty they look just like the originals, just not broken. ;)
