Question:
I have a really old trailer that only has 1 wire running to each light. I was able to replace the brake lights but all the marker lights have 1 wire behind them and look like the screw holding it in is the ground. Looking on your sight for 7 red and 7 amber 1 wire marker lights to help me refurbishing this trailer.

Expert Reply:
It's normal for some clearance lights to ground through the mounting screw instead of running an extra wire so there's nothing wrong with that. For the amber clearance lights you can use part # MCL67AB and for the red part # MCL67RB. These both come with a single wire for power and ground the the bracket mount screw and are 4-1/8" long x 1-1/4" tall x 1-3/16" deep.
