Lets play Name That Fixture!

Has anyone seen this oval shaped porch light fixture for sale somewhere, with a CLEAR or frosted lens instead of amber?

I want to upgrade it to LED and would like to go white instead of yellow.



Thanks!
  • I went from amber to clear with led's. Found the lens at a local rv store. Now I have two ambers I do not need.
  • I changed mine to LED and went out of the way to find an amber lens. White is just too stark at night IMO
  • Give these guys a call. When I was looking for cover they knew which isle and how far from the end it was located and they have a LOT of parts.

    The bugs seem to find the yellow one just fine... I guess maybe even more will enjoy the white, oh well.

    My end goal is actually a bit more elaborate... I'll probably have both amber and white LEDs, and improvise a switch to select which lights up.

    The lens is convex, so I guess I could put a clear piece of plexi in there but I'll let some factory in China injection mold a convex one for me instead :)

  • Oh, my googling is lucky tonight... I think it's a BARGMAN #79, will have to measure when the sun comes back.

    Strike that, not a bargman, the barg has 1 tab on the lens, but mine has 3... the search continues
