Taco Metals T-Top & Bimini Top Lights
Taco Metals T-Top & Bimini Top Lights: Built for the Open Water
When the sun dips below the horizon and you're still on the water, the right lighting under your T-top or bimini can make all the difference — both for safety and for comfort. Taco Metals, a marine industry leader since 1959, brings that same precision manufacturing heritage to its line of T-Top & Bimini Top Lights, delivering LED tube lights engineered specifically for the demands of the marine environment.
The LUMA LED T-Top Tube Light Series
Taco Metals' T-Top LED Tube Lights are purpose-built for hard-mounted overhead structures like T-tops, arches, and bimini frames. At the heart of the lineup is the LUMA LED Marine T-Top Tube Light, available in both 16-inch and 20-inch lengths to suit a range of console configurations and overhead span widths. These lights feature a polished anodized aluminum housing that resists corrosion in saltwater environments, paired with an impact-resistant polycarbonate lens that stands up to wash-downs, spray, and pounding wake.
Each fixture packs 108 LEDs and is available in dual-color combinations — White/Red or White/Blue — giving boaters the flexibility to toggle between bright white task lighting and a low-glare secondary color that is ideal for nighttime chart reading without destroying night vision. The hard-wired design draws less than 1/4 amp, meaning you can run these lights through a long offshore session without worrying about draining your battery.
Engineering Details That Matter
Taco Metals designs these lights with installation simplicity in mind. The housing comes pre-drilled for straightforward mounting, and a generous wiring cable — up to 18 feet on select models — accommodates most T-top and arch geometries without requiring splices or extensions. The universal form factor is also designed to fit most existing fluorescent T-top light housings, making it an easy upgrade for boats that are transitioning away from older lighting technology.
