    Default Landing light cover

    I want to install my landing light in my wingtip. What material would be best to make the clear cover that can be contoured to the wingtip leading edge for the light to shine through?

    LExan. It’s what the factory uses.

    How do you bend it and make it stay? Heat gun?

    Where do I get some?

    Maybe ask John and Debra to sell you just the lexan covers that they use.

    Are the lens covers that they use for the Hoerner wingtip or the standard wingtip (the type I have).
