Teak insert

We had a piece of teak made to cover the two spots on the bulhead.

This shows where the old light was and the teak had been oiled before by the PO. It is very doubt full we could match it and seeing as we want to cover the whole above the light also we will cover both spots at the same time. Then mount a fan there.

We do and or did not like the light so it is a good opportunity to remove it also.

We then channeled the bulkhead out using a drummel tool and the wires fit in nicely. This was easier than I thought it was going to be as the wires had enough slack to ,move them out of the way. They are not accessible inside the teak trim so if the get damaged it could be a real problem.

The teak insert is only a ¼ inch thick so the channeling could not be done there. The reason is that the one piece of molding coming of the top of the door to the headliner is not very thick. The rest of the molding is thicker. Any way it looks good.

The piece of teak that we had made fits the space really good, after some sanding. It took some sanding with 80 grit paper to get the teak to fit.

We then drilled a hole through for the wires.


It is a bit crooked at the bottom so I will sand the bottom to be straight across.


We then will teak oil it to try to match it with the surrounding teak,


Then clean the teak in that area and vanish it.
