    Bluewater LED in Rubrail ??

    I'm planning to put some Bluewater LEDs in the rubrail and for you guys who've done this, are you taking the entire rubrail insert out to do the cutting or do you just pull out a section near the bow in the area where the lights will go? I worked with mine a little yesterday but did not take the section out near the front as it seemed very tight and I wasn't sure I was going to be able to get it out w/out damaging it. Got to thinking it might be easier to take the whole insert out but then thought I'd ask before doing anything further. Thanks for any info anyone can provide.

    i pulled out about 2.5 feet of mine on each side, gave me enough room to work, and turned out great

    Thanks. I'm thinking I may use some WD-40 or penetrating oil to get it to slide out easier.

    I just cut my rub rail while it was still in place.
