Hi Shawn; we don't have a lot of options close to that size so I will list them here for you to check out. Unfortunately, they are all white. You can choose from the following:
-Opti-Brite 12V LED RV Dome Light - Single - Surface or Recessed - 13-1/2" Long - White Trim # OPT58FR
-Optronics 12V LED RV Dome Light - Single - 15-3/4" Long x 3-5/16" Wide - White Housing # RVILL50
-Opti-Brite LED RV Dome Light - 880 Lumens - Flange Mount - Rectangle - Clear Lens # ILL10CCB
Something like the Opti-Brite LED Strip Light for RV Awnings - Weatherproof - Chrome Housing - 18" Long # ILL71CBAWN might work, but the light is directed downward at a 45 degree angle. Everything else is significantly shorter. If none of these interest you I would try a local boat shop to see what kind of replacement options they might have.
