If it's too much, make your own set. Price is set on demand, and if he can move his product at $25 a set, why sell them for less?

Also, miltary airways are in brownish-red color and they too can be hard to see with a red light. Military Operations Areas are also shown in magenta. White lights MUST be used in the cockpit so there are no mistakes made. At least for me, it could mean getting shot down in some places I fly to. Just like the Russian's did to the Korean 747 And I also fly the 747, maps in Asia and the Middle East are very detailed and they use heavy reds, magentas and maroone-like colors.

Just an FYI.

Ya, a while back I had the # for the map light and dome light (dont remember where they are anymore) and you can get the replacement LEDs on ebay for a couple bucks.

Do you carry anything for the doors. One of mine went out and you sent me a bulb that you had left over from swaping out over to LEDs. Bulb works but just isn't that bright. I replaced the bulb with another one too and it still isn't as bright as the other one. I wouldn't mind replacing them with some LEDs

All the gauges should be well lit with white lighting. Are you talking about renting Cessna's and Warriors, if so yeah, those owners never replace burnt out bulbs and sometimes the whole panel is dark.

Yep. Many of the Cessnas have burnt out bulbs that I've been in. I prefer the red gauge light over the white light. I flew a helicopter once with red lights and it was very nice and have disliked white cockpit lights since. Just personal preferrence.
