Re: Best Piper Colt modifications
Thanks, I like that mod. I assume there is no problem rotating the light to shine on the panel with the new design? Looks like it sits at a diff. angle than the old unit..............

Re: Best Piper Colt modifications
The new light is a little shorter and points better than the old and you don't burn your fingers. Some people have had trouble getting their 60 year old dimmer switch to dim the led lights because they don't pull enough power. Some do not, depends on the switch.
