Replacement Fluro Tube

Post by Aussie Syd »

Hi Can anyone let me know where I may be able to buy a replacement Fluro tube to fit in the light unit above the pelment in the sportfish 1988. Tried every where here to match the size 530mm without sucess. I don't really want to change the whole light unit as I may not get the same distribution of light above the pelment if I change one light from the other three. The size must be only available in the US. Thanks Syd

Syd... Since my wife is a Brit I think I am the only person on this board who knows what a pelmet is! Especially after doing all the woodwork in my house! If you can show me a picture of what you want and provide some dims and any markings on the tube I will see if I can find one for you here. Say hi to Sue for us!

My guess is some kind of window treatment/vallance?

Correct Cliff.. a pelmet is a valance that surrounds the top of a curtain.

Hi Frank, I thought that was what it is. Many years ago I dated a lady north of London. Liechestier (SP) I think. Fun times. Hows the work on your boat proceeding?
