The base structure may be a deck pad on a boat or a covering for a floor, spa, spa cabinet, pool, or any other surface. The deck may comprise EVA or PE foam material, and may comprise one or more layers of sheet material. The retaining cavity may comprise a window and bevels for visibility. A lighting element may be held in place by forces created when the compressible material of the base structure is compressed by pressing the lighting element into the retaining cavity.
