Can you do it ?
 

Hello all. I just purchased my first boat ever. 1996 Shabah Z 212. Very excited for summer!
Here is my question... Can I replace the plastic light housing for the docking lights, and convert
them over to stainless steel ( or chrome, what ever material that is) and what years will fit in there?

Re: Can you do it ?
 

Yes you can, i did mine on my 240z.. before and after pics.

Re: Can you do it ?
 

Where did you get the stainless steel inserts from.

I got mine used on Ebay.. This is the type.. Model QL-32-SS Stainless Steel

QL-3294-SS

Also the stainless piece is thicker.. I had to use the sander on my dremel to trim the hull opening a little.

Thanks for the link. BTW they look great on your boat!

Re: Can you do it ?
 

Thanks..also the light bulb/rubber part of the housing just comes off the plastic piece and will slide right on the Stainless ones..

The above ones will not work. Specs are different from these
