I have a 1996 Tiara 40 Express. Does anyone know who the manufacture is for the interior ceiling recessed lights and were to purchase replacement parts? Thank you.

If you contact tiara with your hull number they might be able help. Or you can also contact your local to your dealer with your hull number and they can get you the information. If it was my boat I would just find New fixtures of roughly the same dimension but in LED. If you replace a 10 W standard lightbulb with an LED the LED will draw one or less watts and run much cooler.
I wouldn't give up on your old lights.you can buy new led bulbs that fit into the old housing sometimes .most of my housings on my boat have been upgraded to led.i purchased a lot of bulbs from dr led.
Thanks for the feedback. I am going to keep the current lights, but I need a replacement lens that cracked. Also, how do you remove the lights to change out the bulb and change the lens? Thanks!

hope this helps, but they just twist off, just grab the top half and twist, from there you can see the bulb, and in you hand will be the lens part. I think it may just pop out.
Thanks! I will try that. It seems to be a basic question. However, I have had a few different people look at them and we are all stumped!! Thanks again!

If you're doing hardtop lights it takes a good pull to get them out.they have springs that once they come out will do a number on your fingers.bill

Scurvy, did you ever figure this out? I have the same boat with the same issues with the interior lights and need new lenses. Share if you get these things apart and where you found the replacement parts!
