Expert Reply:
The GloLight Thinline LED # MCL165AB is a multi-function light in the sense that it can be mounted in different spots to provide certain functions, not in the sense that it will function as a blinking and non-blinking light. It will not operate any differently regardless of where you mount it. The 2 wires that are used on this light are designed for the positive and negative wire that they will be connected to on the vehicle.
Under normal circumstances, where you mount this light determines its function. When you mount this light on the extreme rear and front corners of the trailer, they can be considered as fulfilling both functions of the clearance and side marker lights. I've linked a photo from one of our customers that shows how they pulled this off that should give you an idea of where to mount these lights to perform both functions.
