My Lunar Lander marquee light seems very bright. It shines in my eyes when playing unless I duck under it. I checked it out and it appears to be a run of the mill flourescent aprox 18inches as described in the manual. The bulb is 15W. I went to Home Depot and could not find anything less than 15W. Any suggestions for lesser wattage? Is this standard?
 
The bulb in my Lunar Lander must've been too bright too because whoever owned it previously wrapped some tinted film around the bulb to alleviate the problem, which I just left in place. Maybe that would work for your cab as well...
 
I've been known to put a strip or two of black electrical tape directly on the bulb - down it's length. It will lower the light output and not blind you anymore. I need to do this to my LL marquee too. Did it to my Super Pac and it worked well.
