I'm starting a new project, and I want to upgrade or install the following (please keep in mind I'm on a limited budget):

Bow Navigation Light (LED bulb upgrade)

Cuddy Cabin Lights (LED bulb upgrade)

Install 3 Courtesy Lights (1 at the Stern entrance/exit, 1 behind captain's chair and 1 behind passenger chair near the floor)

See picture of the original bulbs from the Cuddy Cabin Lights (left), and the Bow Navigation Light (right) below

Does anyone know the LED replacement for either of these bulbs? The one on the right has a part# 2641L, and my local part store had Sylvania LED which looked compatible (please see pic below).

I couldn't find anything that resembled the Cuddy Cabin Lights. At least nothing that had the 2 extended prongs. So I may just end up replacing the entire fixtures. Any recommendations?

Now on to the Courtesy Lights; I would like to add courtesy lights at the stern exit/entrance where the remote radio controls reside. The remote radio controls no longer function because the previous owner upgraded the original stereo from the included JBL stereo. Please see pic below for the area I am working with.

I thought about purchasing an LED light that covered the entire area, which is about 4" long, but I've since cleaned the area up. I could fill in the existing drill holes with some filler and maybe buff the gelcoat. Either way does anyone have a suggestion for an LED light that could fit this area. Whatever light I end up putting here I will also put the same light behind each chair (captain and passenger), near the floor to light the pathway up on deck. My helm has a wiper switch, but my boat did not come with a windshield wiper so I thought I might use that switch to control these courtesy lights?

Thank you

However, most of the brebuilt sealed LED nav lights will be much brighter that a retro fit bulb.
