Scare Light Dimensions

[tim43]

My street side scare light is starting to rust on the bottom and a replacement frame is needed. What is the diameter of the scare light? I'm thinking it is 8.5 inches in diameter, but the rig is parked on a site near the coast and I'm not there. Plan to order one and take it down to the coast when we go on the 22d. Thanks ahead of time. Tim

I replaced my (passengers)curb side scare light with a motion sensor scare light. It was a direct replacement an it works great. They also make one for the porch light which I also replaced. Did not do the street side light yet.
Here's a link for the scare light: http://www.amazon.com/Starlights-SL-.../dp/B002YIK5KQ

The lights are 8.5 inches in diameter. Had to pull both of mine down, sand rust away, and repaint them. Then I used plumbers putty for the lens seal and put closed cell foam backer rod in the screw holes to keep water out. I found that the metal on these was very thin to start with and the rust made it worse. Expect to replace both with something of better quality some day. John

Thanks John, I'll order one today at 8.5 inches.
