I've been looking for LED lights to replace the factory lights on my CH35 with factory cab. The 4 inch square or round LED's I've looked at seem a bit on the heavy side, compared to Halogen lights?? The Factory Cab light mount is only thin fiberglass, I'm afraid over time the vibration and a heavy light will crack and break the fiberglass mount. What are you guys using for LED's on your factory cabs?? Thanks

The weight is ballast to keep the LED cool. I don't think you will find a good quality LED that isn't a bit on the heavy side.
The fiberglass should be strong enough to support a light easily. Even very thin fiberglass is very strong. Just keep the bolts tight as abrasion from vibration can wear thru fiberglass pretty fast.

Fender washers to spread the load, custom backing plates, many ways to avoid point loads on glass.
