I am on my third set of trailer lights. Each has died due to salt


water intrusion. I have tried the LED variety and the bulb variety


with the so-called Bell JAr concept. Does ANYBODY have reccs for


lights?




Go with some of these. Yes they can be had on ebay and are reasonable...

30 years ago a guy told me, you put your trailer lights on a PT 1x4

and Bungee cord them to the trailer or the boat when you are driving.

Otherwise keep them somewhere dry.

Take them off for sure when you are dunking the trailer and also when

you are storing the trailer..

I made up a set during the Reagan administration. They are normally in

the corner of the garage and when I put them in the trailer, they work

every time.


Good call, Greg. I have a set of these I took with me in the tow "just in case"

Really cheap and handy-
