I have a 1988 Barth Regal. I'm looking for a plastic accordian style shower curtain replacement as well as a couple of isle lights. Anyone have any idea where I can locate these ?

Thanks a bunch Bill,
I Checked it out. We'll probably keep looking. Their curtain is not really similar to our original in color or type.

Most Barths which have aisle lights the bulb is Radio Shack Part #272-1092C, give it a shot.

Ditto

Thank you Dave,
I'll take a trip out to Radio Shack today.

Picture 1 is of complete aisle light. Is this the type you refer to in this note?


This one is the light dis-assembled:


Dave/Group, do you see the new bulb laying next to assembly... Ok, the center part (plastic) of the existing light is full of wax of some sort and I need to know how to remove the bulb and replace the new ones.

Since this is my first shot at posting pictures I sure hope this works.

HEY HEY HEY . ITS EASY WHEN IT WORKS

Al, This is exactly the problem I wrote about in a post several weeks ago. I didn't get much help, but I can now help you. I went to Radio Shack and purchased several 12 volt 50 milliamp lights (much like the ones in your picture but with shorter, heavier leads). I then carefully pulled the white plastic tube from the frame. I didn't remove the frame as the plastic piece snaps easily back in when the repair is made. I sniped the wire off close to the back of the the plastic and using a utility knife slit one half of the back of the plastic. the old light is encapsulated in clear silicone which I peeled out along with the old lamp. using a fine ice pick, I burrowed straight into the end of the remaining cable and inserted the two wires on the end of the new bulb. I took a 6 lb test momofilament fishing line and wrapped it tightly around the insulation of the electric wire to secure the inserted wire. Before putting the bulb back into the white plastic cover, I switched on the power to make sure the light worked and then pushed the bulb and a small amount of wire into the back of the white plastic cover and then pushed the cover back into the small metal frame. They work perfectly and it will be easy to replace the bulb should one fail in the future. On our last camp out, I left them on all night and had no problems. The hardest part of this job is laying on the floor to do the work.

Thanks Bill. I will give this a try tomorrow and let you know how it turns out.
Thanks again for the help...I studied this thing for several hours and even went to the extreme of heating the tip of an icepick.

Al,
Dig the wax out along with the old micro bulb the solder the contacts of the bulb onto the 12 volt wire. That's as far as I've gotten. Probably will refill it with clear silicone sealer.
