Availability of LED Clearance Lights That Replace the Peterson Rectangular Light # M152A

Published 10/17/2017

Question:

I want to convert more of my old trailer lights to LED. All my clearance lights (22 of them) are of the type Peterson PM152. You sell this light but I could only find it as an incandescent. With 22 of them I’m hoping to find something that is not a lot of work to install. Do you sell a direct replacement LED equivalent, and if not what do you recommend instead? Is it’s not a direct replacement, what is involved in the change (new mounting holes, new wiring, new connectors, etc?

You are right that the Peterson Rectangular Trailer Clearance and Side Marker Light # M152A is incandescent.

For an LED alternative we have the Optronics Mini Thin Line Sealed LED Marker/Clearance Light # AL82AB which has the same dimensions as the Peterson option, it is waterproof, and it has a simple 2-wire design for easy installation. The black wire is for power and the white wire is for ground.

I have attached a review video as well as an installation video that you can reference for the installation.
