Spend a bit of time on Google looking at the many, many 12v LED-based lighting options available. Include "interior," "automotive" and "accent" in your search and the plethora of hits is truly mind boggling. Here are a couple of the hits I got: http://www.12volt-travel.com/12-volt-interior-accent-spot-lights-3-blue-leds -p-1552.html http://www.amazon.com/Convenience-Airplane-Aircraft-Interior-Lighting/dp/B00 44PQYZM/ref=pd_sbs_auto_4 http://www.amazon.com/Overhead-light-eyeball-fixture-Truck/dp/B0044PQUC4/ref =pd_sbs_auto_1 http://www.amazon.com/Mini-Spotlight-EyeBall-LED-Fixture/dp/B004DBBVXC/ref=p d_sbs_auto_2 -- Mark -----Original Message----- From: John Hafen [mailto:j.hafen@comcast.net] Sent: Tuesday, April 19, 2011 6:32 AM To: lml@lancaironline.net Subject: Cockpit lighting suggestions Gents: The photo below is of my overhead panel in my IVP. The light in the middle of the air-con vents is good for nothing more than burning out now and then. I would like it to shine forward to illuminate parts of my instrument panel at night. It would have to aim forward. Or come down and shine forward, versus straight down. Do you guys have anything you might recommend as a replacement? Cheers, John Hafen N413AJ 300 hours > > >
