Peterson’s latest 4-inch round lights have an integrated AMP connector, insert-molded terminals for environmental protection and surface-mount diodes. Both the red-lensed 817R-36 Stop/Turn/Tail light and amber-lensed 817A-36 Park/Turn light have 36 bright white LED diodes and an operating range of 9 to 16 volts and are available in either grommet- or flange-mount designs. The amber version meets DOT requirements for a front and rear turn signal, parking lamp, sidemarker and clearance light.
