I had ordered these stainless steel covers to mount around the marker lights of my boat trailer. For some reason they don’t fit over the lights. So I need find someone to enlarge the opening . I have 10 of them that need to be done. Any help would be appreciated. The picture with the cover fitted is RDP member @shunter2005 out of Texas. He sent me a sample to use as a template.

He did. He’s the one who sent me the template. He used someone in Texas.

Can you not find the light/bezel combo that works together?

It will probably cost you more to have 10 of those custom re-machined than to just buy the correct light bezel combo that fits each other.

Are your stainless steel covers the same design as the sample or do they differ slightly?

This is a little late, but the answer is no. They only make the bezels to fit incandescent lights, at least for now. The LED's are wider and they don't fit unless you open them up. Believe it or not, Grand General was clueless about this when I talked to them.

There are two designs. One fits the Truck Light grommet (which is more square on the edges) and one that fits the Peterson style grommet (which is more rounded on the edges. Budman ordered the Peterson style, while I ordered the Truck Lite style.

I was able to find someone to get it done. They are in the polish shop now getting repolished.
