[C320-list] LED lighting

[Paul Rickman]

In the cabin I have used the MR16 (a spot) and the MR11. Both are LED. You can get these at
West Marine or order them from www.doctorled.com. That is where West Marine gets them.

I was looking to replace the cabin lights with LEDs. I was wondering if the 
G4-14 base bulb will fit. The existing bulb I pulled is a G4 (2 pins 4mm 
apart) but I'm unsure if the new bulb will fit due to its size. Does any one 
have experience with this?
