[C320-list] deck light replacement bulb

[Koen Bennebroek]

I finally picked up the Xenon version of the second
light (halogen) and went up the mast. There is no way
that a 2-pin halogen bulb will fit there. I'm starting
to suspect that my fitting is broken. The fitting has
a round hole and I did not get close enough to see
what's behind the hole. To fit the halogen or xenon
bulb, one would expect a rectangular fitting.
Does anyone have a close-up picture of what the deck
light fitting should look like? 

Thanks, Koen
