I replaced that fitting this spring (the old lens was yellow and crazed).
It was a rather tedious process - trying to stop the rather short wire ends from escaping down into the mast, while hooking them up to the new fitting, and then trying to get the wires positioned behind the fitting in a way that allowed it to lie flat against the mast. I replaced the steaming lamp with an LED, but I haven't yet found an LED replacement for the downward projecting bow light, which is a pretty bright bulb.
Thanks for that info. Maybe I should check into pulling the Mast this winter and doing the job (and other Jobs) then.
