Title: LED trailer lights
Post by: brainpause on Jun 07, 2004, 09:33 PM
Anybody got any experience with replacing the tail lights with the LED lights? I am a little uncomfortable with our tail lights; they seem dim to me. I always put LOTS of room between me and other vehicles during lane changes, so we've never had a problem. But I am uncomfortable. Plus, I think the vehicle looks tons better with them.

I haven't inspected the old taillights closely, so I'm not sure I know what I need. They are the sorta large rectangular type. I figure that whatever I get, I'll just caulk over any leftover holes.

I bought my interior LED lights here.

Just email them the bulb in your light now and they will tell you what LED bulb you need to replace it. :)

Thanks, Trace! I never thought about just replacing the bulb! I was looking into getting those expensive taillight kits, but now, maybe I won't have to do that!

I ordered lights first thing this AM. I hope they ship fast; I'd like to get them on the trailer before our trip this weekend.

Another low tech (read cheap) solution is to paint the inside of the fixture white/silver or glue tin foil inside.

Larry I ordered in the evening and they shipped 2 days later.  There isn't any mail delivery this Friday so you may not get them in time. :confused:
