Recessed Clearance Lights and Wiring For a Dump Trunk Bump Bed

Question

Question:

hello, I am needing a wiring harness for clearance lights on a dump trunk. There are three 2.5" clearance lights on the rear that snake up to two 2" clearance lights on either side of the dump bed. I am having trouble finding exactly what I am looking for.

It sounds like you have three of the Optronics 2-1/2" LED Clearance Lights # MCL59RB held in place with the Rubber Grommet # A57GB and two of the Optronics 2" LED Trailer Clearance Lights # MCL55RB with the 2" Grommet # A54GB. If this is what you have all the lights use the 2-Wire Pigtail # A86PB and can be wired in using whatever length of wire is needed. We do have the Bonded 4 Wire # 16-4B-1 sold per foot that you can break into 2 wire strips for each side and connect using Butt Connectors # 05731-5.

If you have something else or had something else in mind please let me know and I will help you find the correct parts.

Answer 1

The grommet part #A54GB that you have with the light part #MCL50RB requires a hole diameter of 2-5/16 inches. So you'd need to cut a hole 2-5/16 inch in diameter and the grommet and light will slip right in and be secure.
