Hi
Does any one know where I can source the light fittings below. They are from my 2004 BT. I have scoured the internet to no avail. Broke two of the diffusers with cupboard doors that open just a little too far!
Thanks Les

Ditto.. Get rid of those old things..Great collector of bugs.
Replaced all of our lights on Micks' experience. Better and use a lot less power.
I did it all myself , so it has to be easy!!
ABR have a special going at present too..

I actually ripped the fluro tubes out of them and put 4 LED strips inside each. So I was hoping to keep them.

John and Harry.
Thank you both for your kind offers. I am in Canberra, well 100 metres from their border. I could either send a post pack or do a cash transfer, or whatever suits, to one of you to get them here. Such a great community.
Thanks
Les

Do you need the whole fittings or just the covers , which would make the package lighter?
Cheers

Just after the covers. And if you have the little pins that hold them in also. Thanks to both of you for your kind assistance.

Guys, are the Sidewinder 12 inch 36 LED a direct swap? We just bought a 2004 (Oct) 21 foot BT and want to update lighting. Is it as easy to DIY as you say?

About as easy as could be, change wires over and from memory one new hole to screw the light to ceiling. Nothing difficult at all.
