Hi Folks,

I just finished replacing my bow light with a Perko Bi-Color Navigation light (chrome finish), Model 0170MBO, which is an EXACT replacement for the OEM Lucas light 0120. ? My local West Marine ordered it for me from Perko, since they don't keep it in stock.? Cost was about $60; delivery was ~one week.? The black plastic (polymer) version is about 10 bucks less.? Here's the Perko web page: http://www.perko.com/catalog/category/navigation_lights_under_20_meters/product/931/ My installation was straightforward since my wiring was intact, and the entire project took about 30 minutes.? The festoon-type lamp was pre-installed in the housing. Unfortunately, it is not an LED, but it is nonetheless very bright. An instruction guide can be found on the Perko website: http://www.perko.com/images/catalog/pdf/0170%20Series%20Inst%28USCG%29.pdf I have posted photos of my installation in the "Photos" section under the "Bow Light Housing" album. Cheers!

Hey Rick, I need to replace the plastic part of my bow running light assembly, which hangs from and is welded to the pulpit. Do you know which model you purchased from Defender? The stainless steel back plate is still intact, as is the wiring and the bayonet fitting for the lamp (pictures in the Photo section). Thanks! --Dave |
