Default LED interior lights.
Looking to add a few lights to the mako. Thinking in the boxes and maybe a few by the console. Anyone have any tips or brand to go with? Thanks

West carries Hella brand, so far so good...

Hella used to make good stuff, I'm sure just like everyone else they have outsourced to China for manufacturing the LED's...

I have the whitish blue ones under my gunnels n it is great also in every compartment n fish boxes / live well. Someone on here said something about using red LEDs for "courtesy lights" because they don't screw with your vision while running at night

This glow you have from getting this boat will make that impossible.
