    I have three lights under the cockpit overhang. These light up the cockpit and freezer, bait station and other storage areas. The round lights are 3-1/8" wide and the lens is 2". I've tried to remove these but afraid to pull on them too much. Not sure how they are fastened. No screws.
    Any ideas?

    Hi,

    To remove the lens/bulb only, there is a C ring on the lens/bulb, pick it by a small screw driver and the ring will fly (if you are not ready to catch it!) and the lens/bulb will fall.

    To remove the whole fixture, it is seated on reverse lock spring levers, don't worry and pull on it a bit, but know that once the levers are out of the whole, they will snap on to the outer rim, so make sure no part of your hand is in between. (Trust me when I tell you IT HURTS!). I usually push on both levers to hold them against the inside of the fixture and in upwards direction, once it is totally out, I let go slowly.

    Hope this helps.

    Cheers,

    Tried that these fixtures must be different. That is the way the inside salon fixtures are.
