Sorry - I got that info from a couple of Cessna & Piper drivers who
found the right number - I didn't ask for it ! (Will try next time I see
them). {of course, those fellows wouldn't actually USE these bulbs,
'cause they're not certified .... ;-) }

The lights are exactly the same, but about 1/4 the cost - of course,
John Deere doesn't want the "aircraft liability", which is why the dealers
will only sell if you can give them the part no. !!

......bobp

(Can you give me the G.E. part no. ??? - might help)

OK Bob what's the part number? and where can you get them? ... I'm assuming
the
John Deere light is an exact fit and the same brightness as the Cessna but
is
quite a bit cheaper?
Hope to see you Sunday.

Hello There

I installed Trevor's light kit into the last bay of the wing. I chose this
position as the wing was already closed up and reasoned that it would be
easier to access everything.

Trevor did a beautiful job of making the light kit. The fit was perfect and
his instructions were faultless. Trevor could have done a wonderful job of
making the manual for MAM.

The unit would also be a little easier to service if you had removable wing
tips. Overall, the kit is super.

I buy these lights at auto parts stores and at Walmart. I use them for off
road driving lights on my jeep. You can get either 75W,100W, and 250W.

for long) so I can show you how it looks installed onto the ribs.

Let me know....

There seem to be a problem. You say 1 bay INWARD FROM THE ROOT. You can
not go inward fron the root. Also I hope this is just a typo. My
understanding is NEVER CUT INTO THE LEADING EDGE NEAR THE ROOT. Lights
should be installed at the tip end of the wing.

Rich,

OK, someone finally found out that I was looking at the picture upside down.

I meant, of course, one rib bay inward from the tip of the wing. I guess
deductive reasoning works at either end of the wing....

I e-mailed two pictures to Wray this morning. They really only show the
bare-bones of the installation, but you'll get a good idea from them. I
will send in more pictures when I get the LE skin put back on.

OK they're up under the construction section ...I think I'm going to have
to
rework those pages a bit to make it easier to find things ...I'll think on
it a
bit.

Joel if you can send them to me and I'll add them to Tim Carters pictures of
the
lights on my home page

Make
the top strip 1.25" and break it 1/4" from the edge about 45deg like you
