• Is the Bulb Replaceable in Optronics Rectangular Tractor and Utility Light # TL46FS

• How to Ground Optronics Rectangular Tractor and Utility Lamp # TL46FS to Horse Trailer
  For best performance, you would want the ground wire to attach directly to the trailer frame. It would also be acceptable to ground the wire to a piece of metal that is directly connected to the trailer frame. I would not recommend grounding to the interior of the lamp housing.
