Surface Mount Trailer Light Installation Diagram

Surface-mount trailer lights install using a flange or bracket with mounting holes. These lights lay flat against the trailer surface and only require a small, often pre-existing hole, for wiring. Mounting hardware is used to secure the light to the trailer.

I was looking all over for tail lights for my 21 year old camper...
E-Trailer had the exact Lights .. Perfect match - mounting Holes and Wiring Colors... The Lens was cracked in Shipment... Contacted E0Trailer and they sent me a replacement the same day... Great Product - Great Company- RJ



by:

This product does NOT come with a pigtail to wire in the ground (-). The pigtails for turn and tail are fine.

Great replacement, Easy to change out

Works great after a year with no issues.



by:

Exactly the one I beed



by:

Got what I ordered quickly. Exact replacement part.



by:

After 22 years the license plate tabs broke off of my 1998 Aljo trailer. Didn't know if I would find the identical left side light to match the unbroken right side but etrailer had it in stock for a very reasonable price and prompt shipping. Will install today and will be good for another 20 years!

Lights are still working great. No complaints



by:

Worked great, wiring was fairly straight forward. This new light is brighter that the passenger side though...so might be back to replace that one too! :)



by:

Identical to what was on my 21 year old Nomad. One of the license plate brackets had broken off of it. Fixed it right up!



by:

Great good item good price & FAST delivery.I'll order from you again.

exact fit on older travel trailer. I did not need to replace driver side but the price was right so I replaced it while I was doing the passenger side.



by:

I got exactly the part I needed, shipped to me promptly. I'll definitely come back again when I need more parts!



by:

Perfect match!

Exact replacement for the existing taillight assemblies.

Using the website and finding the right product was straightforward and seemless. Ordering and paying was easy and I received the item quickly. The product was of good quality and the price was fair. I would buy from this source again.

  • Replacement Tail Light for 1988 Jayco Jay-Series 1008 Pop Up Camper
    I am unable to find a lens replacement or the exact tail light replacement for your 1988 Jayco J-Series 1008 DD pop up camper. My recommendation is to replace the light with the Peterson Combination Trailer Tail Light - 4 Function - White Base - Red Lens - Passenger Side # V457 and if you want the license plate mount # V457L. If you don't want the plate mount and just want the matching set the # V457 will work for both sides.

  • Availability of Peterson M457 Light for Driver Side
    We do have the driver side light available, they are not universal. The correct light is the Peterson Trailer Tail Light w/ License Bracket # V457L. Unlike the # V457, this includes the license plate bracket and light.

  • Recommended Replacement Taillights for a 1993 Dutchmen Classic 26FL
    From what I can see, the Peterson Trailer Tail Light w/ License Bracket # V457L looks like it could work great however you'd need to do some measuring on your end and make sure the two are close in size. If it turns out that your current taillights are close or dead on, then you'd just need the Peterson Combination Trailer Tail Light # V457 for the passenger side.

  • Replacement Trailer Taillight Lens For a 1989 Jayco 809 Deluxe Pop Up Camper
    The Peterson Combination Trailer Tail Light # V457 and V457L are going to be some of the closest lights to your original tail lights on your 1989 Jayco 809 Deluxe. These surface mount lights are 8-13/16" wide x 5-1/16" tall. The drivers side light base includes the mounting tabs for the license plate. Your taillight lens is no longer in production and would be very difficult to find a used one in good condition due to the age of your Jayco. You can try a local RV salvage yard to see if...

  • How Should Peterson Combination Tail Lights V457L and V457 Be Wired To Trailer?
    Based on the light illuminating and only having the issue once new lights were installed the issue is on the camper side of things and not in your 2005 Chevrolet Colorado. When installing the Peterson Trailer Tail Light # V457L and # V457 you should connect the brown wire on the tail lights to the tail light wire on the trailer (Brown wire on the 4-way you are using to test) and the green wire on the tail light to the yellow/green wire on the trailer (Yellow and green wire on the 4-way...

  • Replacement Trailer Tail Light Recommendations for Bargman 94 Series Lights
    It looks like this light series has been discontinued so your best bet is to replace the entire assembly on either side of your trailer - you'll just have to remove the current rivets and install new rivets with new light assemblies and for that I recommend the following from Peterson: - Driver Side # V457L - Passenger Side # V457 These lights measure 8-13/16" long x 5-1/16" tall x 2-3/4" thick so they'll be a little larger than what you currently have which will be a good solution...

  • Troubleshooting Turn Signals Not Bright on Popup Camper
    Since I'm assuming you just installed the # V457 and # V457L it is unlikely the lights themselves are the problem. It could have to do with the installation. These lights are designed to ground through the mounting hardware. Make sure the hardware is running into a metal surface that contacts the trailer frame. You could also run a separate ground wire to the frame or main ground wire if it seems like that is the problem. The only other thing it would be is the power running to the lights....

  • Grounding Peterson Trailer Tail Light Part # V457L to Trailer Frame
    The Peterson Trailer Tail Light # V457L that you referenced is designed to ground through the mounting hardware which means that a bolt runs through the base which is attached to the ground circuit of the light and when it contacts the metal frame of your trailer the ground circuit is complete. If you wanted to ground this light with a wire you'd need to run the ground wire to the bolt you use to attach the light between the base and the trailer frame. The white wire on your 7-way wiring...

  • Installation of Peterson Rectangular Stop/Tail/Turn/Reflex Trailer Tail Light V457L
    RV makers do not maintain details/specs on the smaller items like tail lights that they install when fabricating their RVs. The USA-made Peterson Rectangular Stop/Tail/Turn/Reflex Trailer Tail Light # V457L is for the driver-side of a trailer and it includes mounting tabs for your license plate. The matching passenger-side item is # V457; it does not have tabs for the plate. Both lights also have four mounting holes on their white plastic bases. These can be seen if you click on the linked...
