Just got some LED Trailer lights - cheap!

[Mojo]

I just got some LED trailer lights on ebay under LED Trailer Lights - 70.00 for the pair - they are pretty good. I have seen on the forum from time to time people talking about LED's , so I thought I would pass the info on to others who may want to get some. Mojo

Any pics of the rear of the lights?

I have seen more of the rectangler ones around for about $40+
dollars a side.

Personally i hav put submecer lights on not that long ago and I could
not be happier. I know when the trailer is hooked up my lights are going to
work.

Garry, below is a pix of the back, one of the wire connector studs is exposed to show what it looks like. It has a small grub screw in there to hold the wire. There are little rubber caps to go over them. I will be plastering them on with a dollop of Sika or silicone or something like that. You can also see the row of LED's for the rego plate. They are really bright. I have hooked one of them up on the bench just to have a look - I am really pleased. The only ones I have seen at close to $40.00 a side are retro fit ones and they did not have the indicator part with them, only stop and tail for that much money. These cost me $70.00 for the pair - I see that there are more of them on ebay this morning for $66.00 pair Mojo

Thanks Mojo,

I hope they are as good as they look. The only problem as you have eluded is the wiring getting water ingress.

cheers

Garry, I don't think any water would get into the unit itself, but I think the brass wire connecting point is a bit of a weakness, that's why I am going to wack a dolop of Sika over the brass connector after I have put the little rubber cap on, It possibly is not a problem really, but I guess I am a bit paranoid about water getting in, over the years I have had endless trouble with trailer lights, (like most boaties) so I hope this is the best yet, and LED's are now nearly as cheap as anything else so I am really happy to have LED's Mojo

try sitting them in a bucket of water for a while before fitting them. They look like they turn to lock into them selves. Might not be all that water tight ? :-/
