Question:

I ordered a whole package of lights from you all last week including these. Could you please tell me the recommended whole size to cut for them. For example, what hole size and center location to drill holes apart? btw, I do have the rubber seals for them.

Expert Reply:

When drilling holes for the trailer lights, # STL22RCB, you can use a 2-1/2 inch hole saw and then use a file or rotary tool to enlarge the holes to the 2-5/8 inches needed for the rubber grommet , # a70gb. When you do drill the holes, make sure that the outside edge of each hole is 6-3/4 inches apart for the overall length of the light.

I have included a picture that shows the dimensions of the hole that the grommet fits into.
