2015 3110 Cyclone Toyhauler. Taillights

[JMullins3]

Hello,
Anyone out there ever replaced the taillight. I ordered a pair from amazon, when arrived I noticed on the back there is little "bump out" (See Pic) where the wires come through. On my existing taillight there is no "bump out" (I'm using the word "bump out" 'cause I really do not know what it's called.) Anyway, the hole where the wires come through on the RV is too small for the "bump out" and I cannot drill a larger hole because of the wires. I have no idea how to get to the wires from inside of the RV to pull through to drill a larger hole. I did talk to Heartland, according to them this is an OEM product. Appreciate any help on this.

Thank you
Jay

If you look on the back side of your original taillight you should see a DOT (Department of Transportation) type number embossed or printed. If the lens itself is detachable, it may have its own DOT number, which may help you find the housing with a websearch. Enter the DOT number in a web search to see if you can find the original manufacturer, and maybe online distributors.

Careful usage of a Dremel tool will help enlarge that hole.

another option would be to trim off the bump as you call it with a utility knife

Thank You. I'll give that a try.
