WOW! I finally found some time and extra $$$$ (really only $ 49 on sale!) and replaced my trailer lights with LED's. Holy #$%@ !!!!!
I think the people behind me will need sunglasses. They are some serious bright even in daylight. At night I'm almost thinking tooo bright. Still, I wish I had bought additional kits to replace all my trailers (4) lights with these. I also took Jakes experience to heart and put the whole system on it's own circut....... AND mounted the whole thing up on the guideposts to keep them out of the water........... AND used Plumbers GOOP inside the shrinkwrap. Now, if I could just stop the planes from thinking these LEDS are landing lights for a runway........

Could anyone tell me whether the AMBER RUNNING LIGHTS on the side of the trailer are mandatory or not anymore since the cat on the trailer is over 80 inches wide? I attached them but I'm not sure if I needed to. Seems like just another thing to go wrong and since they are mostly hidden by the hulls I thought about by-passing them. The kit I bought said "for trailers over 80 inches" but then didn't include the amber running lights (I had them on the trailer already) which got me to wondering but they were there (and worked) so I just spliced them in.
Now I'm thinking I didn't have to. A friend, with tongue firmly planted in cheek, suggested putting a length of the blue Painters Tape on the rear beam on top of which he wanted a section of "OVERSIZED LOAD" tape. Not really a bad idea if I was going any distance with the boat and trailer.
