Question:

I need to replace the OEM tail lights due to bulbs out and likelihood that they will be damaged when attempting to remove as mounting screws are rusted in place. This light looks to be similar in shape and light specs. Are you aware if this is an OEM replacement? Its a common light found on Thor industries motor homes, such as Georgetown, of that year. Those lights have a recessed housing which this does not. Presume if size is correct these would mount over the existing openings with appropriate sealing.

I don't believe they're considered true OEM replacement tail lights for your Class A, but I do know that some of our neighbors have successfully used the Triple LED Trailer Tail Light # CE44VR on their RVs. You'll want to confirm that the hole size from your old lights is smaller than the new lights so there's room to mount the new lights. Since these are LED lights, if you're replacing incandescent lights, then you'll also need some load resistors like the # DI34ZR.

The other light we've seen a lot of folks use is the Bargman Triple Tail Light - 5 Function - Incandescent - Rectangle - Black Base - Red and Clear Lens # 30-84-509 or Bargman LED Triple Tail Light - 5 Function - 36 Diodes - Rectangle - Black Base - Red/Clear Lens # 47-84-009.

All of these lights are roughly the same size, and I've included some diagrams of their dimensions for you to check out.
