I bought these. I was looking for a warm white and as far as colour goes I am very happy. They are pretty well indistinguishable from an incandescent (I had both installed at once). They will fit the ceiling lights, head lights and the moveable ones at each end of the cabin. They are very tight in the "eyeball" lights due to length and diameter at the base. I trimmed the gel coating on them a bit at the base and they did work.Can I ask for a link to led bulbs for salon ceiling on amazon, they have just the two long prongs/pins
Am I buying into a bunch of BS or does anyone think these are worth approx 3x the amazon bulk price..

They claim they are more expensive because they have built in:
On one hand I am thinking... OK, that sounds good and makes sense.
- Polymeric PTC re-settable thermal foldback fuse - protects the LEDs from over-temperature by reducing the current
- Transient Voltage Suppressor (TVS) - Protects the LED from momentary high-voltage events in load dump situations common on boats
On the other, I am thinking... The cheap ones can blow 3 times before I am at same cost.
