Which Mounting Bracket for Optronics MCL61ARB Light

Question

Question:

I need to verify that a MCL61ARB Trailer Fender Light fits correctly into a A67BB Fender bracket. The fender bracket references a MCL65ARB light but not the MCL61ARB that I currently use. Does it fit both lights correctly? Thanks

I have a solution for you, but the # MCL61ARB does not fit in the # A67BB bracket. The # MCL61ARB light that you're using requires the # A65B bracket for mounting. You may also need the Single Wire Plug for Thin Line Series Trailer Clearance and Side Marker Lights # A65P since this light grounds through the mounting hardware (if you have a single wire light).
