Recessed-Mount Light

Recessed Grommet Mount Trailer Light Installation Diagram

Recessed-mount trailer lights install with a grommet, which is often sold separately. These lights extend past the trailer surface and require a hole for installation. If replacing a light, you can utilize the pre-existing hole. If installing a new light, you will need to cut a hole or use a mounting bracket (sold separately) to complete the installation.

Thanks. Order received in good order! Parts are exact replacements for the defective ones on my used 22 yr old trailer! That made installation easy! Thanks again for the availability and quick service.

See what our Experts say about this Peterson Trailer Lights

  • Tail Light Recommendation to Replace a SAE AIST 04 DOT 2
    The Red Trailer Light, Flush Mount # PM425-3 that you referenced would be the correct replacement light for your trailer. This light has a lens diameter of 4 inches. For further dimensions to compare to your old assembly check out the picture I attached.

  • Replacement Round Trailer Light for 4-5/8" Opening
    For a light that fits your 4-5/8" opening I recommend the Peterson Trailer Tail Light w/ Steel Housing - Stop, Turn, Tail - Incandescent - Red Lens # PM425-3. This light will fit a 4-1/2" diameter hole so your hole will be just a little bit larger. This light comes with a steel housing so the overall dimensions are 5-1/2" diameter x 1-5/8" thick. The distance between the mounting holes is 4-1/4" on center.

  • Peterson Trailer Light PM425-3 Round Lens Gasket Replacement
    There is not a replacement gasket that we carry for the lens of the Peterson Trailer Tail Light w/ Steel Housing - Stop, Turn, Tail - Incandescent - Red Lens # PM425-3. I recommended using the Loctite RTV 598 High-Performance Silicone Gasket Maker - Black - 2.7-Fl Oz Tube # LT37467 to keep moisture, dirt, and debris out of the assembly.

  • What Is The VIBAR Socket In The PM425-3, Red Trailer Light Is It A Brass Socket Or Something Else
    The VIBAR socket that is referenced in the item description for the Red Trailer Light, Flush Mount, part number PM425-3, is a vibration dampening feature that this light now has and does not affect how the bulb is installed in the light. You will still have a brass socket to install the 1157 bulb in and the VIBAR feature should allow the bulbs to last longer. This light is the direct replacement for your existing taillight.

  • Replacement Lights for 1989 Interstate Box Trailer
    The diameter you are looking for is 4-1/2" on the # STL42RB. This would be the widest part that would fit into the hole on your trailer. We do not have an LED option without the plug but we do have the Peterson # PM425-3. This has the same mounting hole dimensions and is also 4-1/2" at the widest point on the back. If you decide to stick with the Optronics light you will need the # A47PB or # A45PB.

  • Replacement Bulbs & Light Assembly Peterson Trailer Tail Light w/ Steel Housing On Circle J Trailer
    It appears you have the Peterson Trailer Tail Light w/ Steel Housing # PM425-3. You will need to lift the clip to pull out the lens and gain access to the 1157 Bulb # DI79VR. You can also consider upgrading to LED Bulbs # ARC93FR for increased bulb life.

  • Replacement 4-Inch LED-Type Stop/Turn/Tail Lights to Replace Peterson PM425 Incandescent Lights
    The Peterson Red Trailer Stop/Turn/Tail Light you referenced, part # PM425-3, takes an 1157-type bulb. We do offer replacrment LED-type bulbs in the 1157-type. For example, Putco offers their red 360-degree-radiation 1157 bulbs as a set of two, part # P231157R360. For a lower-cost option we also offer the CIPA EVO Formance 1157 Round White LED Bulb Set, part # CM93236. LED lights will substantially reduce the power drawn by your trailer - they use about 1/10th that of standard incandescent...
