Question:

Hi, I recently purchased 4 side marker lights. Code MC65RB. These lights look almost identical to the ones I need to replace. The number stamped on the side of the old one is DOT LP2PC 00. The other side is stamped with PM 154. The prongs on the new lights are a tiny bit longer and tapered. The prongs on the old lights are shorter and flared.The plate on the bottom is not set as far in as my old lights and the tabs on the old lights are a a little bit bigger. All these differences are very subtle but enough to cause the lights not to fit. Just wondering if you have another light that would match up to the numbers above. The lights are replacing original lights on a 2003 Silver Star horse trailer. Thank you in advance for your help.

I have a solution for you but we do not have an exact replacement for the PM154 that you referenced. I saw that you purchased # MC65RB and the proper base bracket for these lights is # A65PB if you would like black or # A67CB if you wanted a chrome base.
