Title: Five Golden Rings
Post by: defendertx on December 26, 2018, 09:00:05 pm
Howdy,

I recently purchase a 1995 U280 - 40ft.  All of the major systems work fine, but like most new FT owners, there are some things I'd like to fix.  In the process of replacing the halogen light bulbs with LEDs, I noticed a few of the gold light fixture rings missing or damaged beyond repair.  My understanding is that FT no longer stocks these (please correct me if I'm wrong).  I'm looking for five.  Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

Mark

I just bought 6 of those from a Forum member, won't fit my 95 U280, recessed fixture is different, those twist on ............. ours just snap on and look like the picture below.

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for the all the quick responses. 

I have the plastic kind that FourTravelers references (with picture).  They look identical to what I have.  I don't have the very nice looking brass kind (too bad :-/)

Anyone have some of the plastic ones to sell?

Thanks

Mark

I've always bought them from FT Parts.  Have you called them?

No, I haven't.  I had read somewhere on this board that FT no longer stocked them, and just assumed that information was correct.  Your point is well taken - I should simply call them to verify.  I think they are closed until the 3rd of January, so I will call on Wednesday and report back what I find.

Thanks!

Mark

The replacement puck lights in my 2002 u320 I purchased from Amazon. Part number Arcon 17799. I think they are out of stock but the part number should help you.
