Anyone know (besides a dealer) where I can get the same brand and/or style of LED's that they are using on the new vistas? They are about the size of a quarter. I see them mounted on the base of the transom right about the swim platform.

What about these?

They can be found at http://www.randpcarriages.com. They have different colours too! And they are very economical.

these ones look like the ones above. Pretty close to the factory ones I think. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayI ... 26otn%3D12

Now that I think about it, these units seem too large... The factory units are more like a single led unit in about a 3/4" round bezel.

Here it is !

These are available from the same place http://www.randpcarriages.com

The small one is an LED bullet, see auction item 250055319913 for white, 260370413375 for blue. They also have amber and red. That 11/16" hole seems a bit large. Aren't the ones on the FW smaller than that? My '05 doesn't have LEDs on the transom so it's not like I can measure. That and mine are surface mounted. Don't know what I'd prefer, three small holes for surface mount (two screws and one for the wires) or one larger hole. The downside to the single hole is you need to be able to get in behind it to tighten that collar. The insides of the transom panel are "less than trivial" to gain access to once the boat is assembled.
