Ta, found Osculati moulded into the coloured lens on a second look

In my defence it was in really ickle writing and I haven't finished wiring the lights in the garage yet so it was quite dark in the boat's corner

The line of least resistance is good, so I'll order some more and buy a little bottle of threadlock!

Anybody with a dead one lying around to let me fix the one I have?

I'm guessing that it might be easier to source a countersunk 316 stainless M4 x 75mm bolt (or whatever measurement is correct) direct from one of the usual marine suppliers instead ...

Steve, if you give me the size & style of the screw I'll try & get you one from our stainless fixings supplier & drop it in the post. Thread size, length & head style etc.

Yeah well, when you've had a chance to Mullet over, even those with the most Meagre skills become a Dab hand at it. It was tricky in the old days, Sculpin around behind Poly's back - anyFin out of the usual and he Smelt a Ratfish. He'll be carping on about me any moment now...
