Hi, I have a 1977 Rancho El Rae camping trailer. I was just wondering if you know of specific parts for this trailer. In particular Im looking for exterior lights. Thanks!

Unfortunately even with the mounting dimension it will be difficult for me to recommend a replacement lense cover for a trailer that old without knowing the brand and model number of the lights you have installed. Therefore, I recommend replacing the lights on your trailer with a set of new LED lights that way you will not have to worry about them for some time.
For the circular lights on your trailer I recommend using the LED Trailer Clearance/Side Marker Light part # MCL57RB for red and part # MCL57AB for amber. These clearance lights have an LED bulb with a 2-1/2" diameter. They are also sealed which will be the best way to prevent water damage. You can simply unhook your existing light and use the Right Angle 2-Wire Pigtail for Optronics Trailer Lights part # A46PB to install these lights. We also have rubber grommets like the 2-1/2" Round Grommet - Flush Mount part # A55GB for an even easier install.
For the rectangular side marker light, I recommend using the Rectangular Side Marker or Clearance Light w/ Reflectorized Lens part # MC70RB as these lights are also LED's and provide an easy installation.
