Please also consult the manufacturer for more detail on modifications and installation. Sport lights, such as the OceanLED Sport series, are specifically designed and suitable for surface mounting on boats with GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) and wooden hulls. Also available to use on carbon and metal hulled boats with the inclusion of the Isolating Kit.
If using the Isolating kit, please refer to the instructions provided with the kit. OceanLED recommends use of provided screws: No.6 (3.5mm) x 1 inch (25mm) Pozi Self Tapping Pan Head Screws - Stainless Steel. If alternative screws are used, do not use counter sunk or non-flat shoulder screws to secure your lights to the hull (failure to do so will invalidate your warranty).
