Not hard probably overall takes 2 hours if your being careful, a razor knife and black silicone. When I got the slot cut out to the size I wanted I drilled straight thru and tied into the light wires already in place.

Nice! Only problem on those lights is the location. They are going to take a beating there, that's why you have a rub rail. Looks nice though.

Pretty boat, at the Mcdonalds on fork this year I saw a boat that was running those LED's all the way down the rub rail. That thing was sure bright.

Nice rig I've had the nav lights in the rub rail since early August and fish places with lots of nasty trees. I'm not one to shy away from a tough spot and I've had no damage to the lights in the rub rail.

Just because you have a rub rail on your boat doesn't mean you have to beat the [censored] out of it.

Nice boat. Did you install the blue water LED's yourself? Yes I did. The hardest part is getting the nerve to actually make the first cut. Theres really nothing to it. Just cut it real tight and trim it a little at a time till you get the fit you want.

Man I hate to be the first one to bring this up, because I personally disagree with it and I think those LEDS are extremely cool, but....after a long running discussion last year on BBC which involved a lot of folks including the guy from Blue Water, the concensus was that those don't meet USCG criteria.
Now with that being said, I've never heard of anyone actually being ticketed for running those. But technically you could get into trouble.

we need some night pic please. good looking boat Not his nice shiny new FX, but a night pic of my light setup  - a lot more light than that little bulb on a pole behind your trolling motor  And yes, they don't meet USCG regulations, as far as I can tell - so use at your own risk. I'll take my chances on being visible.

Can they take the place of the other front lights, no they can not, you must still use your pole light. They are Sweet though and I would put them in my rub rail except mine is rope  Personally i think it would take a game warden wanting to be an [censored] to even question it.
