I originally tacked this onto a Swap Meet posting about replacement cabin lights, which after thinking about it, probably isn't the most appropriate place to stick it.

In my Catalina 22, I converted the original square plastic cabin light fixtures to white/red LEDs, with ON/OFF/ON selector switch for less than $10 each.

It appears that back in the 1980s Catalina used the same square plastic cabin light fixtures in both the 22 and the 25. Questions and comments welcome.

I did the cheep ones from West marine some time back and now I expect the LEDs are much better in brightness and color...

I may rewire and add new ones someday.....
