Question:

Returning customer here with a question: Building a headache rack for my truck and I will be needing 4 led lights for it two on each side. Wanting 6inch oval lights and want them to be identical size. They need to be flange mount with the protective grommet surrounding each, as well as sealed/weatherproof. Two of the lights should be red covers and serve as tail/turn/brake functions, while the other two will be white covers and serve only as backup function.

I recommend Optronics clear LED back up trailer light # BUL12CFB as it's a certified back up light function.

For stop, turn and tail lights use # STL78RB which is also 6-1/2 inch by 2-1/4 inch (lens measurements). For # STL78RB the wiring is: red is turn signal and brake, black is the tail light and white is ground wire. Both have sealed, waterproof housings and lens units.

Both options will keep the trailer lights size identical including sealed, waterproof, corrosion resistant and flange mounted.

I have included a couple videos for you as well.
