Best clearance lights
A PO has replaced all the clearance lights on our 320 with a generic trailer side marker light.\nThe oval shaped two bulb type.\nAnyone know of a close match to the original lights?

Re: Best clearance lights
My clearance light front and rear are the 2 bulb type... I am pretty sure they are original to the coach. I had to replace two of the rear ones... I just picked up a couple of single bulb units from CarQuest auto parts here in town. They are just as bright as the two bulb units without going to the LED look.\n\nIn the picture below the new lights are on either side of the center one.

Re: Best clearance lights
That would look really cool! I looked at some similar lights when I was at the parts store but I was in a hurry to get on the road and didn't want to change them all out at the time... not to mention the cost.

Re: Best clearance lights
I went to work on a few of mine that were out and really the factory ones are the wrong lights anyway as they have no ground wire. All Travco did was stick a stripped ground wire under the screw. IMHO any lights used should have an independent ground wire.\nhttp://www.bigrigchromeshop.com/Merchant2/merc ... /CTGY/LCLK

Re: Best clearance lights
When I replaced two of my rear clearance lights, there was a hot and a ground wire. I guess the grounds all tie to the metal skeleton frame but not sure.

Re: Best clearance lights
I'm not sure what the original lights looked like. If anyone has a pic of what they think are original lights, please post.

Re: Best clearance lights
I know the Travco in my Avatar had the original lights but that was a 70.
