Interior Lighting Idea's Needed
My SR357 has the factory 12V flourescent lighting behind the valences. Three of the six have taken a dump and they are expensive as hell.
I tested some fo the undercabinet halogens but it seems like they get too hto to be safe eventhough I like the "ambience" as the interior desecraters call it. Have played with the LED lghts but thye give off a crappy colored light in white.
Any other ways to get the mood back in that lighting? Has anybody just totally removed that valence on tried something else?

Do a gogle search, there are a ton of LED places all over the web other than marine stores. You can dim them using decreasing voltage (potentonmeter and resistors ). I think so anyhow , I am sure some more electircal type will chime in.

I'm going to change my running lights to led's--the current draw is dramtically lower. eBay is another source for them.

All you have to do is change the bulb. The biggest struggle is identifying each type of bulb -- it's not difficult/just detail and Im not good at details.
