This heavy-duty LED clearance and side marker light puts out a bright, clean red glow while drawing very little power. The single diode LED design is far more efficient than old filament bulbs, lasting up to 50 times longer without ever needing a replacement. With an operating range of 9V–16V, it stays reliable and steady, even when power fluctuates.
Rough roads and vibration can destroy fragile lights, but this one’s built tough. The recessed-mount housing is made from heavy-duty rubber that absorbs shock and resists cracking. It’s got built-in strain relief around the wiring too, keeping the connection secure in extreme environments. Once installed, it stays put and keeps working where others give up.
When space is limited, the compact 3/4" diameter fits flush and neat. It only needs a 1" hole for mounting, and the integrated grommet makes installation straightforward—no extra brackets or adapters required. The two-wire setup uses 0.180 male bullet leads, one for power and one for ground, so wiring is quick and consistent.
For those who care about staying visible and compliant, this light checks all the boxes. It’s PC rated for use as both a clearance and side marker light when mounted correctly, and it meets DOT requirements for road safety. That means dependable performance day or night with confidence that it’s built to standard.

Hello, everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're gonna take a look at this Peterson Round Red Heavy Duty Mini-LED Clearance or Side Marker Light with the Built-In Grommet. Now, this is a small, round trailer light that can functions both as a clearance light and a side marker light when it's properly mounted. It is a rugged rubber construction. Has the built-in strain relief right here, which is very durable in extreme environments.
And this does use LEDs. Basically, actually, this uses one LED. And the LEDs make great replacements for your incandescent lights, 'cause they'll last 50 times longer, and they're more efficient 'cause they'll provide brighter light with less power output. And of course, no bulbs to replace or brittle filament's gonna break. And they do have a lifetime warranty on the LEDs.
Now, as I mentioned, this is a red lens over one red LED. And I am gonna hook this up to some power, just so we can show how bright the light is. So we'll go ahead and hook the connections up. Go ahead and turn on our power. And then, with our connections made right here, you'll be able to see, there's your red light.
Go ahead and turn off the overhead lights and you can see how bright it is. Oops. There we go. Gives off a very bright red light. And go ahead and turn back on our overhead lights.
Turn off our power and disconnect it. Now, this is a recessed mount design. Has a built-in grommet to it. Now, the installation will require a one inch diameter hole drilled at your desired location. It is a two wire design. You can see, it's a single wire here, but then it has the two male bullet connectors on the end that'll make your power and ground connection. This light is DOT, Department of Transportation compliant, PC rated, and made in the USA. It is for a quantity of one light. Operating range is nine volts to 16 volts. And a few dimensions on this, if we measure the diameter including the grommet, is right at one and one eights inches. Just the light itself is about three quarters of an inch. Total depth on it, it's right at about three quarters of an inch deep. And the overall length, from one end to the other, is gonna be right at about eight and three quarter inches long. But that should do it for the review on the Peterson Round Red Heavy Duty Mini-LED Clearance or Side Marker Light with the Built-In Grommet.
