Can A Small Marker Light Be Wired For Clarance Lights And Blinkers?
Updated 11/17/2025 | Published 12/17/2024
Question:
I’m looking for the smallest possible 1/2” mounting hole preferred marker light that also acts as a switchback blinker. Meaning its connected to the running lights and blinker, so its a constant marker light, but when the blinker is activated, it turns completely off and back on like a dedicated blinker. Something similar to CE36ZR. Is this possible?

Hey Wes, thanks for reaching out. So the smallest marker lights we offer are for a 3/4" hole like part # CE36ZR. Also, all of these lights are a two wire so they are for marker lights only. They do not have a wire for blinker function, and we are not aware of any way to wire it to get the functions you described. You would have to use a tail light to do that and all of the tail lights we offer are going to be much larger than what you need.
