Thanks!

And, with the overhead red LED on, a hint of purple...

What they look like normally, your basic SS cupholder...

Cup holder bling, huh?
I kinda thought they would shine up too much and interfere with forward vision, but the lighting mainly stays within the holder itself. Took me about 3 hours to get them wired as I had to secure the wiring in the glove box overhead (thanks to that wonderful PVC board and resin jelly), then daisy chain and route all the wiring along existing routes. Not as 1, 2, 3 as it looks. The 6-gang switch panel you can see inside the glove box was the hot side final termination. Will be controlling UW lights, Macerator livewell pumpout, and a couple other things from there, as well...

Looks great Bob and thanks for the link, not a bad price for those either.

I kinda though, initially, that they were kind of silly...but they look good! And Maggie likes them!! So, they fall under the category..."Maggie Approved"!!
Go figure... :lol:

UW lights on a budget...nothing wrong with that! Keep in mind Scott, most owners install UW lights to...let's just say, look cool. When in reality, their primary function is to attract baitfish, which in turn attracts snook of whatever...
Matter of priorities, I guess... :wink: :wink:
-
Wait I've been in that Possum Marine in Largo it's not that far from my office. They have much more stuff online now.. may have go back by there again.

Bob You read my mine on the Snook thing, I'm thinkin about putting a couple on my Panga for snook season, I stopped trying to look cool years ago, as long as Mary and Josh and Ash think I'm cool that's all that matters :D
Bruce check it out and let us know :salut:
-
Bruce, ask for a demo, tell them you'll give them publicity!
Seriuosly, temp mount one on the transom, see how it looks...just inboard of the tabs...
