  • Forward-pointing marine reading and map lights
  • Directional cabin fixtures using index BAY15D bulbs

The Dr. LED BAY15D (PN 8001252) is a forward-pointing warm-white LED replacement for compatible double-contact index 15mm bayonet reading lights. Offset side pins at unequal heights distinguish it from BA15D non-index bulbs.

BAY15D index bulbs have offset side pins at unequal heights. If your original bulb has level pins, see the BA15D (PN 8001269-08) instead. This cabin/reading bulb is not a navigation Polar Star bulb.
