1977 Montauk Combined Sidelights Lamp Replacement Lightbulb Socket
Posted: Mon May 16, 2016 12:10 pm
Has anyone tried replacing the lightbulb socket in the combined sidelight lamp for an older (1977) Montuak with the one sold by Specialty Marine? See

Also considering the LED bulb shown at

I am preparing to make my annual Gulf Coast pilgrimage this coming Saturday., I discovered last night the new socket I installed only a two years ago has corroded badly. Thought I had the housing sealed but saltwater got in, again. If the replacements will work I'd like to give them a try this time. Last time I was lucky enough to find an old OEM replacement but now it's probably either this or one of those cheap flashlight clamp-on lights jjust to get me through the trip.
