Hardtop LED replacement 2003 Open
#1
Looking to replace the white LED's in my 2003 35 Open hardtop with blue LEDs as the white is too bright.  The units in there appear to be made by Cantalupi.  A large light is the Susy 105 and there are 7 others that are similar but smaller.

First, is it possible to replace bulbs in these units or are they totally sealed so the entire unit has to be replaced?  If the unit needs to be replaced, any recommendations on replacement model?  Apeirion makes a marine grade tri-light that toggles between white, blue and red that looks like a size match for the small lights.

Thanks

Dave

I own a 2003 38 Open and added 8 blue LED lights instead of replacing the existing Tiara installed white ones.. This way I can still have white when desired or blue when the mood is rights. Purchased 8 IMTRA Norfolk lights which were the same as the ones installed by Tiara. Looks great... Used one of the spare switches on the steering station panel to control...... I've attached details regarding the placement for your review... I know you can buy LED bulbs to replace the existing halogen ones but don't know the number..... Also you can buy multi colored LED's now that weren't available when I did my hardtop... I also included a picture with the blue lights on.
