- 450 DA Sundancer running CAT 3126
Really didn't know where to post this, so I apologize for any redundancy.
1996 450 Sundancer here, has 2 fake "aquarium" panels in the salon where most boats have mirrors.
These are illuminated with a rope light, goes all around the edges of these panels.
My rope light has become yellow with age, and needs to be replaced with a new LED setup.
Problem is I have no idea how to gain access. I removed the panels in the cabinets above, and also removed the seat backs on the long couch below, but no joy.
Here's a couple of photos of a boat I looked at last fall where the owner had replaced the lights, so I do know it's possible, just have NO IDEA how to gain access.
Anyone been there, done this ?
Photos of that boat follow below:
