Question:
Can the plug be cut off and the wire spliced with my existing trailer wiring? And, is this light self grounding so that itll be grounded by the mounting hardware?

Yes, it can! The connector on the LED Clearance and Side Marker Trailer Light w/ Reflector item # MCL35A32G can be cut off and spliced into your trailer's wiring. I recommend using heat shrink butt connectors like item # DW05743-5. It is grounded by the mounting hardware.

Hey, how did the splice with your trailer wiring go using the LED clearance and side marker light? It’d be great to hear if the grounding through the mounting hardware worked as expected. Your update could make it easier for the next person wiring the same light.
