Brian,
thinking some more! It would probably be better to buy something
similar to this below. Or a 316 adapter with o- ring. If there is no step in
hole size inside, then drill it out. Then you can do away with the compression
fitting & have one place it can leak rather than 2.

>> Alan,         What about the wires on that unit?   On my marine radio I'm using the compression fittings that go into a 1/2" female coupling where the coax gets compressed and seals down to 900 feet.  But the coax is a solid wire with plastic core,  the wires on this light are just three wires in a sheath, doesn't seem like it would seal with my compression fittings.  Any way to make it go through a compression fitting?
