Question:
Hi, how do you remove the lens housing from the bracket after installation? I believe I have one of these on my trailer fender and the seal was compromised and the lights stopped illuminating. Looking to remove the lens to inspect without damaging it. Gentle prying is not going well and I am concerned it will break. Also, is it possible to just purchase a replacement light housing or do I need to purchase a complete kit with the bracket to get the replacement light?

Hey Jesse, cool name! The Optronics Thinline LED Trailer Fender Light # MCL65ARB comes with a fully sealed lens, so it really isn't supposed to come off. There is no good way to get it off without damaging the light. If yours is no longer illuminating, the best option here will be to replace the entire light with a new one. The # MCL65ARB light goes with the # A65B bracket. You can get just the light by itself if you don't need a new bracket. They are sold separately.
