My 63 Shasta has 3 marker lights above both the front and back windows. The front appear to be amber (orange) lenses- correct? What would the 3 in the back be? Red? They were missing lenses when I got her. Thanks !!  IMG_0336 (1) by kathy, on Flickr  IMG_0164 by kathy, on Flickr |

Amber in front, Red in the back. Be sure to putty/seal them very well. They are a leak waiting to happen.

I would think they were intended as running lights. Danny

Yes, marker/running/clearance lights are all the same...

Someone more knowledgeable specifically about Shastas should pipe up, but I don't think clearance lights were installed until 1968 or so- those are likely an addition by a previous owner.

I agree. Some people did add them. That pattern is not normal either; typical of some of the older trailers with upper lights. In any case, they have to be replaced or it really WILL leak.
