they will work but will not provide alot of light. also dont use the adhesive to mount them or you will find your lights at the bottom of the lake. my malibu will chime in he has an awsome set up from super brights.. hey craig give this man some tips and pics..

pm me and all give you more details

Hey craig, is there any particular reason you used those 4 pod lights instead of using a waterproof strip light from superbrightleds?

I was thinking of using the WFLB waterproof light bar there, there is a small channel on the underside of my swim platform all around that I could epoxy the strips into. Your thoughts?

there have been some s600b underwater transom lights from abyss posted on ebay. pair for 75 dollars. i bought 2 pair form her not too long ago

I bought the same pods as Craig Glass. I'm picking the boat up this weekend and hopefully start the same project.

I bought some of these online, with out the chrome housing. They have a couple color's and I could move them around the boat instead of having them on a strip. The strip I bought was just to cumbersome so I didn't end up using it. http://www.bakesonline.com/detail.aspx?ID=864

Daniel, where is the ebay listing I have been wanting to get a pair of those.

I have some of those in my junk LED box. They will probably work but I didn't like them. Try www.oznium.com, talk to Max, he can hook you up with something.

very cool, how do you power these?

oznium is good stuff for cup holders.

I like liljohn's cup holders
I'm still debating putting rings around the cup holders and speakers but might copy john's
It's a sickness need more leds

stuey

had custom 6 led pods made for me but the 4 leds will work also
the pods are a lot brighter than the strips

how do you get power to the ones on the swimstep?

OMG. search the forum. i don't think i can handle another how to power the LEDs on the swimplatform discussion...

agreed
