Grote releases brackets to upgrade vehicle lighting

July 9, 2013

Grote Industries has released new adapter brackets to allow for the installation of its LED MicroNova Dots clearance/marker lamps on vehicles equipped with older 2 in. and 2.5 in. incandescent clearance/markers.

All Grote LED MicroNova Dots incorporate a robust hardware design and a standard .180 bullet termination along with a low profile and mount-anywhere design with 360 deg. illumination characteristics.

The new black, polycarbonate brackets have a 0.75 in. hole that allows a MicroNova Dot equipped with a standard grommet to be quickly installed with no change to the vehicle mounting surface. Just pop a Dot together with its own grommet into the right adapter bracket, and press them into the existing 2 in. or 2.5 in. grommet. No further mounting modifications are needed, the company said.

Grote also provides new black, polycarbonate flange mount adapter brackets to quickly upgrade older lamps to Grote LED MicroNova Dot technology. These adapter brackets have the exact hole patterns of existing lamp flanges.  Just unscrew the older lamp, press a MicroNova Dot and grommet into a Grote 3 in. or 3.5 in. flange mount adapter bracket, and screw it back into the existing holes.
