Optronics MCL65 Series Thinline LED Marker Clearance Light Dimensions

Sonically Sealed, Waterproof Trailer Light

The waterproof construction of this light makes it ideal for use on trailers that may be submerged, like a boat trailer. The housing and lens are sonically sealed together to create a single unit, which means that water will not get into the light and damage the diodes or circuit board.


P2-Rated Lights

Diagram of light spread for P2 rated light

A P2-rated light produces a 45-degree angle of light to either side of its centerline for a total of 90 degrees of coverage. This beam pattern can be seen straight on, but it cannot be seen clearly from the side. So this type of light can be used as either a side marker light or a clearance light, but it cannot function as both. If you need both functions, then you must install 2 separate lights on your trailer - one as a front or rear clearance light and one as a side marker light.

These lights are the best because change out is soooo easy and the initial ones lasted 9 years. They are removed with a small flat head screw driver and you snap in the new one. Great product



by:

The replacement lights that I ordered for my Haulmark trailer were an exact fit. Your website is easy to use and your service in delivery is quick! I will continue to use etrailer.com for future needs as they arise.

After one year, the replacement parts have performed perfectly. The LED clearance lights and tail lights are bright which is definitely an added safety feature on the highways and around town. Great product, easy to use website and quick response to deliver purchased products.



by:

Quality product!
The LEDs light up brightly.
They're brighter than i expected! I bought enough to change out all my trailer lights, it worked out well. So far they've been through some extreme weather. I've used the trailer in heavy rain, high heat, through winter and freezing temps, and many washes. They haven't leaked and lenses still look great. It's only been a year and I'm hoping these will last many many more.



by:

Needed to get trailer inspected. I have a hard time sometimes finding these light assemblies in my local area. Had to replace one assembly and base as ground contact was corroded away. Order arrived as promised and trailer is ready to go now. Thinking about ordering connection box and trailer cable assembly to make connections easier. Wires on trailers do not always match standard wiring colors. Need to label connections box with functions as colors do not always match.



by:

Ordered new LED marker lights for my trailer, they were exact fit & work great. Would buy from etrailer again in a heartbeat.



by:

The led trailer clearance lights were a perfect replacement. They just snapped into place.



by:

No more blown fuses. Quick and easy to install. Brighter than the original. I am extremely happy with them!



by:

Mounted these on my boat trailer and these are bright and easy to mount with the A65PB bracket. Have not submersed them yet so I can not comment on how well sealed the LEDs are. Ordered on a Saturday evening, received on the following Wednesday.



by:

I like dealing with etrailer corporation. You get exactly what you ordered. It arrives quickly. And I’ve never found anything that didn’t work out exactly what way is they said it would



by:

These have been on my box trailer for 1 year now. Still working great. For the price these can’t be beat. I will buy again when needed. Very good product. And a great company to deal with.



by:

Excellent product. If buying for the first time don’t forget to buy the mounting bracket!



by:

Mounted amber and red light on the side marker on our trailer
Big improvement over the old bulb style.

The lights and bases were exactly what we were looking for to convert from the old style to the new snap-in type.

  • Upgrading Optronics Thinline 65 Series Clearance and Side Marker Lights To LED
    The Optronics Thinline LED Trailer Clearance or Side Marker Light # MCL65RB will fit the same Mounting Bracket # A65PB as the Optronics Incandescent Trailer Clearance and Side Marker Light # MC65RB. The only difference is the LED versus the incandescent lights. The Optronics Thinline LED Trailer Clearance or Side Marker Light # MCL65AB is also available in a amber lens if you also have them going down the sides of your band trailer.

  • Recommended Amber Clearance Light That Measures 4L x 1W and Has 2-Wires for Connection
    If you are looking for an amber clearance light, then I recommend going with the Peterson Piranha Trailer Clearance Light, part # 169A. This light measures 4-1/16 inches L x 1-1/16 inches W and comes with the black and white wiring that you are looking for. It is very similar to the Optronics # MCL65AB that you referenced in your question. You can cut off the ring terminal end of the white wire and use some Butt Connectors, like part # 05731-5, to attach your power and ground wires to...

  • Replacement base for Fender Mounted Clearance Lights on a 2000 Shorelandr Trailer
    It sounds like you have fender mounted lights on something like A67CVB, which is gray (white isn't available). A white base is not available for light # MCL65AB. Since you are not sure if this is the correct replacement light check the lights you have now for a part number (not on the lens, on the actual housing of the light). If they are M161A then Optronics light # MCL65AB is a correct replacement.

  • Recommended Clearance Lights for Pace America Trailer
    I recommend going with the Thin Line LED Trailer Light, # MCL65AB for amber lights and # MCL65RB for red lights. These sealed, dual-bulb lights can be used as a clearance or side marker lights. I have included a link to a video review and installation video of these lights for you. To mount the light, you will also need a bracket like # A65PB for black or # A67CB for chrome.

  • Trailer Wiring Amperage for 1995 Ford F-250/350
    You can ground the brakes right by the frame as long as the frame is a good electrical ground. The closer the ground is to the brake assembly the better. I do not know what the maximum amperage is for the running light circuit on your truck. But it would take quite a bit to over load the circuit. There are a lot of LED lights now available for trailers that draw very few amps. For example, one of the Optronics LED lights we carry draws .048 amps where as an incandescent may draw 4 or 5...

  • Is Sealed, Thin Line Two-Bulb Trailer Clearance, Side Marker Light Available as an LED
    Yes, there is an LED version. You will need the Thin Line LED Trailer Light, # MCL65AB. I have included a link to a video review of this light for you. To mount the light, you will also need a bracket like # A65PB for black or # A67CB for chrome.

  • Clearance and Side Marker Light with Turn Signal Function
    If I am understanding you correctly you are wanting a side marker light like the Optronics Thinline LED Trailer Clearance or Side Marker Light - Submersible - 3 Diodes - Amber Lens item # MCL65AB to be used as a turn signal. I have a solution for you but this light can not be used for that purpose. You will want the Peterson Piranha LED Clearance and Side Marker Trailer Light w/ Turn Signal - 6 Diodes - Amber Lens item # M353A. The LED trailer light functions as a clearance and side marker...

  • Replacement LED Trailer Lights for Kaper KII Lights for a 2009 Haulmark Trailer
    The lights that you have referenced, # STL70RB, do have the same measurements as the Kaper lights you have with the exception that they do not stick out as far from the trailer. As for the clearance lights I do not have one that is an exact match for the dimensions you have given. A close match is # MCL65AB. It measures 3-15/16 inches long and 1-1/4 inches wide. To mount it you would need a bracket like # A65PB or # A67CB.

  • Mounting Brackets for Sealed, Thin Line LED Trailer Clearance, Side Marker Light MCL65AB
    There are a few options for brackets for trailer light # MCL65AB. None are beige or tan but we do have black, # A65PB. Chrome, # A67CB. You will need to remove the old brackets and use steel hardware to install these new brackets. The light will ground through the mounting hardware so they have to be screwed into steel.
