Wingtip lenses
 
My wingtip lenses are cloudy and a bit discolored, and I would like to replace them. The way they diffuse the strobes at night is pretty distracting. From searching the forum, I know there are different types of tips, but I don't really know the differences well enough to identify mine. What type of wing tips do I have? Are replacement lenses available?

Thanks!

W-415
 
Hi Barrett

You have W-415 wingtips that have been modified with a Van's light bay kit.
Van's no longer sells the parts, however the friendly folk at Flyboy Accessories recently had a batch of lenses made by the original manufacturer, so you're in luck!

When your xenon strobes eventually fail there is a Flyleds kit to suit you as well...
