Grote 45172 Clearance Marker Lamp
The Grote 45172 is a rectangular incandescent clearance marker lamp with a red acrylic lens and steel housing. It meets FMVSS 108 standards and carries SAE lens codes P2, P3, and PC. A seal-tight expanded rubber gasket protects the single bulb. Permanent screw mounting and blunt-cut wires simplify installation on commercial vehicles.
Suits commercial vehicle lighting needs
This lamp fits fleets and owner-operators replacing a damaged clearance light or equipping a trailer to meet DOT visibility rules. The incandescent source draws 0.33 A and uses a simple blunt-cut connection. Buyers who want more light output per watt, a sealed LED module, or a different lens colour should look at something else.
FMVSS 108 compliance and SAE P2 P3 PC codes
The decisive specification is the FMVSS 108 certification with SAE lens codes P2, P3, and PC, which legally qualify the lamp for front, side, and rear clearance identification on US and Canadian highways. Without these markings the part cannot be used for required safety lighting. The 0.33 A draw and screw-mount footprint complete the fit check.
