• Will a Trailer Turn Signal Hyperflash if an LED is Installed on It
  Hyperflashing will only occur when a LED is installed on a vehicle's turn signal wiring. When installed on a trailer wiring setup hyperflashing won't happen. You would not need to worry about hyper flashing if you install this on your trailer.

• Are 12"x2" Left Hand Brake Assemblies Available?
  Hi Robert! Single assemblies can be somewhat difficult to find on our website, but I have Dexter and etrailer options listed below. All are 12" x 2" left side electric brake assemblies, but the first set are manual adjusting and the second set are self adjusting. You didn't mention which style you were looking for, so I figured I would include both. Manual Adjust: Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Assembly - 12" - Left Hand - 6,000 lbs # 23-105 Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Assembly - 12"...

• Availability of Waterproof Connector for Side Marker Light Wiring on Boat Trailer
  In order to splice into the wire and add yellow side marker lights like the # MCL13A2B I recommend using the Self-Stripping Connector with Waterproof Sealant # SWC501746-1. This is designed to make a quick connection without cutting or stripping, and uses a waterproof sealant to help prevent corrosion. It is designed for marine use. I would also recommend wrapping the connection in electrical tape for extra protection.

• Adding LED Clearance Lights to a ShoreLandr Trailer
  To connect your LED clearance lights, like the Optronics # MCL13A2B, you can either find locations in your frame to access the running light circuit or you could route some wire from your 4-Way connector along the frame back to your running lights, whichever is easier. Either way you would need 16 Gauge Wire # 16-1-1 and Butt Connectors # DW05744-10. The typical wire color on trailers for the running light circuit is brown, but since this isn't something that is required by law the wire...

• Inserting Wire Connections to Interior When Installing # MCL13A2B Clearance Light on Toyota Camper
  It seems to me that your best bet would be to enlarge the hole slightly, and then push the wires back in once the connections are made. I would use a utility knife with a new blade to carefully enlarge the hole, being careful not to nick the wires. You will only need to enlarge the hole large enough to slip the wiring connection through. If you used heat-shrink tubing to seal the connections instead of electrical tape, the connections would be smaller in diameter and would be easier to...

• Replacement Amber Clearance Light For Trailer with Existing 1 Inch Diameter Hole
  I have a solution for you, but the Optronics Sealed, Uni-Lite Mini LED Side Marker and Clearance Light # MCL11AKB that you referenced does not come in a larger size to fit the existing 1 inch diameter hole in your trailer. I do not recommend using the # MCL11AKB and filling the hole with sealant. I also do not recommend gluing the trailer clearance light to the trailer. The light should be installed as intended by the manufacturer. Some surface mount lights will ground through their mounting...

• How To Connect A Front Clearance Light With Single Wire On a Motorhome With 2 Wire Connectors?
  It sounds like you are trying to replace a front clearance light on your 1996 Four Winds motorhome with a Optronics LED Clearance # MCL95AB which only has a single wire connection. This style of light uses the mounting bolt hole to act as the ground connection. But since your cap is going to be constructed of fiberglass you will need to use a Ring Terminal # DW05741-1 to connect the ground wire from your chassis. You might consider switching all your clearance lights to the Optronics LED...

• How Long is the Mounting Bolt on the Optronics LED Clearance Light # MCL95AB
  The bolt on the back of the clearance light # MCL95AB is approximately 5/8 inches long from the back of the light housing to the end of the bolt. Not all bolts on lights equipped with them are the same length but they are generally within very close proximity, no more than 1/4 inch off, from the lights I have measured. The stud in this light is also the grounding point. Similar lights, like # MCL13A2B, would mount using 2 screws with gasket # A13G2B. This light has 2 wires so you would...

• Are Chrome Trim Rings and Foam Gaskets Reqired for Replacement Side Marker Lights for Boat Trailer
  The polished chrome ring, # A13C2B, is not required for mounting the sealed mini side marker lights, # MCL13A2B and # MCL13R2B. This is decorative trim ring only. The foam gasket, # A13G2B, would be used if these lights are mounted on the outside of an enclosed trailer, to keep out water and road grime. The foam gasket also provides some cushioning that may increase the life of the side marker lights. For your boat trailer the foam gasket would not be required but might be a good idea...
