Mounting Bracket Recommend for Running Power and Ground Individually to Thin Line Clearance Lights

Question

Question:

I ordered 7 of MCL63RB and didnt realize I need a mount as well. Is the A67CB the only mount option I have? Im upgrading all electrical on this trailer and would like to avoid exposed connections and chassis ground connections. Corrosion is a problem. I intend to run wires for both signal and ground.

To use the # MCL63RB and run the ground and power wires directly to it you would need the part # A68P as well. This would allow you to wire up the light without having to ground the light through the mounting hardware.

For a bracket you would then want the part # A65B.
