They still use the SS lights in the R30 and above. I would call the factory and find someone to make it happen.

Another route - skip the factory light option. Buy the SS lights separately and have them installed after you take delivery.

This is the company who Cobalt outsources the lights.

That’s the one thinrg i wish I had. Cobalt wanted 1500 for the lights and the dealer said 800 to install.
How much can you get them for aftermarket? It still have to get them installed

Yeah what a disappointment.. I would keep trying. The right phone call could make it happen. Arent they cut out at the factory? I'm sure there not molded

Stuff like that...I'd rather have I factory installed.
I don't think there is an aftermarket light option anyway that looks like Barnegats... That's it, and they are not cheap, even from Barnegat direct.
The other option is to skip the SS lights and add a windlass. That dresss up the front of to bow also. Here's a pic of a windlass minus docks.

Windless is beautiful but way more expensive, and we would never be able to use. Would be for looks only. Lake is between 80-120 ft deep.Tuscany wrote: Fri Mar 23, 2018 7:31 pm Stuff like that...I'd rather have I factory installed.

Doesn't the R7 use the old/SS version still? My 2018/19 is in the process of being ordered. This may be something I need to look in to if not.

Cobalt will not allow it. Said it would set a precedent for others wanting to do, so no point in others trying to call or modify. Realize I probably shouldn't have posted anything about it. I'll enjoy my bright LED's, they are alot cheaper too!
