Docking lights
#1

I got around to removing the side docking lights and replacing them with LED units. The LED replacements are slightly larger and thicker which made reinstalling the rubber assembly into the coach fender flare a big challenge. I used copious amounts of electrician wire lube but in the end, a Dremel tool was needed to remove some material in the hole to widen it. Glad that is done. Original lights used around 5-6 amps each. These are around 1 amp a piece. Rubber was in very good condition aside from being extremely dirty from years of road debris. I let them soak in a tub of simple green and hand scrubbed them. One of the lights must have been replaced at one point since there is a mismatched color set of rubber boots. Since the pic was taken, I added a 1/4" wire loom to protect the exposed wire and zip tied it to the cross frame. I surely hope I never have to replace these ever again.
