• Size of Hole Needed to Install PVC Grommet # a70gb in Thicker Mounting Surface
  The ribs of the PVC Grommet for 6-1/2" Oval Trailer Tail Lights # a70gb do push further into the light assembly when you attempt to install on a thicker mounting surface. Since the ribs are on the top and bottom you'd just need to open the hold up to 2-5/8 inches vertically and the same 6-3/4 inches left to right and you'd be good. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.

• Tips for Installing 6-1/2 Inch Oval Trailer Lights and Grommet in Trailer Frame
  PVC Grommet # a70gb and the lights that fit with them have to have a tight fit in the trailer. Try to press them into the hole as evenly on both sides as possible. Using some soapy water on the grommet and trailer will help it to install easier. If your trailer takes the same size backup lights you can use # BUL002CB with wiring # A45CB which also fits that same grommet.

• Will Gravel Roads Damage the Back Up Light # BUL10CB Mounted on a Boat Trailer
  As long as you mount the backup light part # BUL10CB using the grommet part # A70GB and bracket part # BK70BB in such a way that it would not be directly behind the tires of the trailer you really shouldn't have a problem with debris...unless you drive like the guys on Dukes of Hazzard.

Then, use a angle grinder with cut off wheel or a reciprocating saw with metal cutting blade to cut the straight top and bottom sides of the hole. The correct width for the grommet is 2-5/8 inches, but I have found...
