Has anyone installed those led light strips for the bow lights?

I put them on my old Champion, they were great for running, but tough when night fishing because of the glare. I solved the issue by adding a two way switch where I could turn them off and still use the bow pole light. Also I place I fish regularly has USCG patrolling. I pulled into the same dock they were at with my LED strips on, and got a thumbs up from one of the guys on their boat. Maybe he just had a thing for old Champs, but never said a word about the CG regulation.

Unless you are having an inspection I doubt they would say a word. The legal part of insurance coverage and law suits is the possible fly in the ointment without CG certification of any particular light. JMO Bob

Yes I did this years ago. The strips were about 6 inches long and I ran the wires under my trolling motor and connected them to the original bow light wiring. It was extremely simple to figure out. I chose to secure the lights to the flat part of the bow on the fiberglass directly above the rub rail. This worked for my needs.Attachment 527978

So this is the wiring for my bow light. It also has the horn but those wires are for the light. Anyone know which Is positive and negative?
