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

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.


Based on a tip from an old trailer guy, I've started using the clear stuff around my trailer lights.

This is the stuff shown on TV covering the bottom of a boat.
