Video Transcript for Peterson Trailer Lights - Tail Lights - V457 Review

Speaker 1: Today we're taking a look at the Peterson Rectangular Trailer Tail Light. This red rectangular trailer light serves four functions. You're gonna have your stoplight, turn signal, tail and rear reflex.It's a nice, rugged, corrosion resistant design. It features a corrosion resistant bulb socket. It contains one incandescent bulb. You'll notice that it has a polar white base and it features a nice, red durable snap on plastic lens.

This is designed for the passenger side of your trailer. If you need a light for the drivers side, you can find that at etrailer.com with part number V457L.This is designed for horizontal mounting. Here on the back, you're gonna notice that it is a two wire design. So your green wire is the stop and turn light wire, and then the brown wire's for the tail lights. Located right here, is the ground location and so that will need to be grounded.

So when you're installing this, you place a screw through there and that'll work as your ground connection. So it grounds through a grounding screw.The product is made in the USA. It's Department Transportation compliant. A few measurements to go with real quick. We're gonna take a look at the overall length.

So going edge to edge this direction, the light measures about eight and 13 16 7 inch long. OveralL height is about 5 to 5 and 1/16 of an inch, and the overall depth or thickness is about 2 and 3/4 of an inch deep.When it comes to the mount hole separation, going this direction our mount holes are separated on center by about 2 and 9/16 of an inch. And then side to side, they're separated on center by about 6 and 3/4 inches. To gain access to the mount holes, all you need to do is remove the lens. Mounting hardware not included.We're gonna go and hook it up to power.

That way you can see what it looks like with some power running to it. In order to have something to work as our ground connection, I'm just placing in a screw and that'll serve as my grounding post for temporary power. So we'll go and get this connected, you'll see what it looks like with power running to it. We'll also be able to turn off our overhead lights so that you can see what it looks like in a low light condition.So you can see here that it sends out a nice consistent signal. Again, it's gonna contain one incandescent bulb. When we hit our brakes, you can see how the signal output increases. It's gonna do that same thing when we activate our turn signals.That's gonna do it for today's look at the Peterson Rectangular Trailer Tail Light.
