Recessed-mount trailer lights install with a grommet, which is often sold separately. These lights extend past the trailer surface and require a hole for installation. If replacing a light, you can utilize the pre-existing hole. If installing a new light, you will need to cut a hole or use a mounting bracket (sold separately) to complete the installation.

Today we're taking a look at the Peterson Luminex LED backup light. This round trailer light functions as a backup light for your truck or trailer. It features durable surface mount technology when it comes to the construction of the LED circuit board. That's designed to better withstand shock and vibration and it allows for improved heat distribution, and an overall thinner construction. LEDs make great replacements for incandescent lights. They last longer, they burn brighter, they're more efficient.
With LEDs, you don't have to worry about replacing bulbs and you don't have to worry about brittle filaments.This is a recessed mount installation with a mounting grommet. And on the back side it accepts an industry standard two prong plug. Both your grommet and your plugs are sold separately and available at etrailer.com. It is Department of Transportation compliant. It meets FMVSS 108 requirements for automotive lighting.
We're going to take a look at the dimensions real quick, then we'll hook it up to power so you can see what it looks like with power running to it. Overall, diameter's about 4-1/4 inches. You can see here, it has a really nice clear lens. It's going to allow plenty of light to come through. And it's got that white housing or white bass on it.The other neat thing I like, if you get the plug that matches up with the Petersen housing here, so if you get a Peterson two prong plug, you'll notice that it has these indentions here, which holds the plug firmly in place, once it's engaged right here in the connection point.
So that way it doesn't wiggle loose, creates a nice tight seal. So that's going to help keep out dirt and moisture. All right, we're going to go and hook it up to power that way you can see what it looks like with some power running to it. We'll also turn off our overhead lights, so you can see it in a low light setting.So you can see here, this has a really nice clear, consistent signal. So it has a total of seven LEDs, or seven diodes, for a really nice bright design.
Really helps optimize the overall light output. It's designed for a 12 volt systems, so the input voltage is nine volt to 16 volt DC. And this product is made in the USA. And the LEDs are covered with a limited lifetime warranty. That's going to do it for today's look at the Peterson Luminex LED backup light.

4-1/4" Diameter round. Weatherproof, LED trailer light provides backup light function. LumenX optics creates a solid panel of light. Recessed mount with grommet (not included). Accepts standard 2-wire PL3 plug.This is a review of etrailer as the product is 4*. The lights came loose in a box so all 4 lights lenses are scratched. When you spend 16-21$ a light you expect them to handle with care but they don’t.
The installation was done without problem and the lights worked as expected.
Received lights. With some modifications, I should be able to mount them
Product was shipped quickly, and it was exactly what I needed.
Very Bright, Works well.
I replaced the entire running lights system and the LED lights are high quality and work great.
The running lights and backup lights are all amazingly bright!
I really appreciate that they help keep my trailer visible and safe!

Great product. Did not listen to my salesperson Jesse. I do need the 2 prong adapters.
Replaced the Peterson Manufacturing PM421R single bulb type 6 1/2 inch trailer light perfectly!
Two of the three lights I installed randomly turn themselves off. At times they also require multiple “touches” to operate, which can get frustrating.
Purchased these in April, installed in May. Second trip I made with the trailer in July, the lens fell off one light. No damage, it just fell off.
Neither E-trailer, nor Peterson will warranty the light.
I think it's the last time I spend money with either of them.
The lights look ok, but I haven't gotten them installed yet. My main complaint is the packaging, because everything I ordered was thrown loose into one box. You need to do better to ensure nothing is damaged during shipping.
It works fine
Exactly what you'd expect. Seems to be a good quality grommet-mount LED light. I used it for a mid-ship marker on a gooseneck.
Good product, nice bright led's
Should last a long time. Great customer service and good website description of product. Etrailer has always been a great company to deal with. Keep up the good work.
Very nice looking lights. Disappointed in that I did not watch the video to see that a harness is needed to wire the lights. I will get them with next order though.
Easy instillation and very bright. But you must be very thorough that you have the right sized grommet for the hole in the bed or trailer AND for the light you are using. Not all grommets are the same as with trailers and flat beds so make sure that you double check the hole size both ways of the bed and the light to minimize head aches when you go to install.
Bought 4 tail lights only 1 worked right out of the box - had to work with the other 3 to get them to work
I used these to replace the tail lights on my utility trailer. They are bright and because they are LED they will not require any attention. I look forward to many years of reliable service.
