1999 221 DCX w/ a Merc 225 EFI.
I see in the pic that the bulb is a 36mm so I just went online and ordered something similar. Thank you again for the reference; looks like a great solution.
That's perfect! Thanks for the picture. Those are the same lights I have. I'll try that route first... do you have a link or part number for those LEDs that you could forward?
Great idea. I need to look into that. Mine has some dull bulbs in there now; some LED bulbs might work great. I'm not sure I've heard of the LED festoon bulb but I'll look them up.
Thank you. I tried the courtesy lights with the built in switch from Bass Cat but they weren't the direct replacement I was hoping for. The Rigid Industries on their site look really good but just...
I'm looking to convert all the original rod and storage box lighting to LED on my '99 Champ 221. I like the idea of having a built in switch on each light like the originals, but will probably just...
Thank you very much; that's all great information. A direct replacement and custom fit are definitely important to me too. My current seats seem to be a little upright compared to some seats I've...
Those look great. I'm looking to change out the seats in my '99 221 too. Which model Llebroc seats are those and how comfortable are they compared to original? Did you have any fitment issues with...
Wow, what a cool place to fish. That's pretty water and that open land is something else. Looks like peace and quiet at it's finest. Thanks for sharing the great pictures.
Thank you. I'm loving everything about this boat; tons of room on the front deck and an incredible ride which I really need for my home lake. Hope you're able to find one.
Thank you. I'm fortunate to have a real good fiberglass guy locally that will help me out, so I think I'm going to go that route and get it professionally fixed. I'm willing to spend the money to...
I'm removing two transducers and a paddle wheel from the transom of a boat I recently purchased. I cringed when I saw all that. My plan is to take it to a good fiberglass guy as soon as he can work...
Thanks Lea! Will do!
Thanks for sharing the prop suggestions. I think I'll have to try one of the tempest 3 blades. The four blade Trophy Plus doesn't seem to provide much bow lift and I'm only running mid 60's with a...
Great looking 221 and some nice modifications too. I need to update TM and electronics on mine. To answer your question, mine is a black bottom, white sides, and the stripe is silver, black, and a...
Thanks for the info, Pat! Great to hear. That's exactly what I've been looking for to handle some of the rougher days on Lake Murray in SC. I've always heard good things about Champion boats, but...

Awesome. Thanks everyone and thank you Pat for chiming in! I fish Lake Murray in SC and will definitely get to put it through the paces out there. I'm loving it so far. What kind of speeds should...
Just picked up this mint condition 1999 221 DCX and I'm about as excited as can be. Any insights y'all could share would be appreciated. What are the positives and negatives? Any idea on...
Thank you for the info. It looks like my '99 console is exactly the same. I'll reach out to him and get one on order. Thanks again.
Wow, that's a well designed mount. Thanks for sharing. Any issue with it holding the weight of a 12?
Hey guys, I'm looking for some set-up ideas for a '99 221 console. I'm looking to do a Solix 12 on the existing RAM mount or possibly add a mount to the face of the console if it's possible. If...
