Navigation lights-replacement source

[DavesWorld]

Does anyone know of a good source for replacement nav lights. I went into West Marine this morning and was told that I needed to update my lights to what they had in stock even though the screw layout and size were different.

I assume that this is something that needs to be replaced each each as I replaced the starboard side light last November.

Thanks.

Why not just replace the bulbs?

I'll try that first but I've been told that the moisture has a way of corroding the contacts and requiring a new light to be soldered in.

I tried just the bulb on other nav light when it went out to no avail.

Dave- Any fixture short of the sealed LED nav lights will corrode. When you change bulbs, put some grease or T9 or Corrosion X on them.

Will do. Thanks.
