5-1/16" x 4-9/16". Waterproof trailer light acts as brake, tail, turn, side marker, side reflex reflector, and rear reflex reflector. ONE Series provides bright light using fewer diodes than other LEDs. Stud mount.Before installing these tail lights on my boat trailer, I touched the power wire and ground wire to the terminals on my truck battery. Even though this model light has only 1 LED, it is brighter, at least 2X, than the older style, single, incandescent bulb trailer lights that I am replacing. Plus no need to "monkey around" with the incandescent bulb to remove corrosion, readjust for better contact or replace because it burned out when some water seeped in around the lense.
Listed as submersible but there is a big opening in the back where the wiring enters the fixture and no obvious drain so it would seem that water would be trapped inside. Can't tell if there are internal seals that would prevent water from getting to the circuitry but even if there are internal seals, trapping water (saltwater in my case) inside the light fixture seems like a bad idea.
I hope I'm wrong and that these taillights are really submersible despite the opening in the back, but it sure didn't look like it to me.
I've sealed the openings as best I can and will hope for the best.
LED light was a perfect fit and easy install. In attached photo LED is on right and incandescent on left in photo (daylight photo was darkened to show lights better). The photo doesn't show it clearly, but both my wife and I believe it is slightly brighter than the incandescent bulb. I have had some trouble in the past with the incandescent bulb not making contact. This should not be a problem with the LED bulb.
So, I rewired my trailer to not have any wiring connections underwater during a launch operation. To accomplish this, I placed the "etrailer" tail lights and brackets on existing guideposts, then using two "shielded electrical extension cords" I routed them from the tail lights to the trailer hitch plug-in connector.
Lamp came 2 days earlier than expected, and well packed. Tracking my part was extremely easy and accurate. Would not buy trailer parts anywhere else!!
100% satisfied.
So simple to hookup!
I smashed the driver side rear light when a tie-down snapped and my dirt bike fell on it. First day of a 2 week vacation. The next day I got online and ordered LED replacements for both side. I wasn't sure about how long it would take, and unfortunately etrailer doesn't provide any information about shipping times for the various options. I ordered it with USPS delivery to the house we are renting on a lake.
I thought it might take 4 or 5 days. Boy was I surprised when I got an email for USPS saying they couldn't find my name or address and had sent it back. The name I could understand, but the address? I have received many packages at this address over the years. I even Googled it and it showed up just fine. The day before I received another package.
SO no I was concerned that I couldn't get it in time to replace before we left for home. I discussed my problem with George. He checked the tracking info and confirmed the parts were on their way back, so he reordered and suggested we just use Ground. I mentioned to him that I was nervous about the time, and before I could call (to early in the morning) I had gone on another online retailer knowing they could deliver to this address. I was surprised to find the exact same pair of lights, both cheaper and free delivery. George said etrailer had a price matching program, and if I could send him the other online retailer info he would refund the difference.
The parts arrived right about the time I was told, and it took me perhaps 30 minutes to rewire and test. Nice bright lights, much better than the original. Thank you once again etrailer, I love your company!

1 year later: went to use the trailer for vacation and one of the lights wasnt functioning consistently. After much troubleshooting it turned out that I had an intermittent connection to ground. I then remembered that one of the nuts had fallen off and I replaced it but didnt have a lock washer so used a flat washer then applied silicone sealer as a thread locker. At the time, I didnt pay attention to the fact that this was the ground connection. I swapped the star lock washer from the other side, reapplied the thread locker, no more issues. I am using the trailer lights on a trailer in a bag trailer that breaks down into 5 pieces and has NO suspension. I assume that can lead to more vibration which resulted in the nut coming loose. Now that I have fixed the problem, I expect continued good results. I wrote this update to perhaps help others who may have run into a similar issue. Love the product, great trailer lights, REALLY GREAT COMPANY!
Well made. nice and bright.
Another great product form etrailer works as stated and I love this company online easy to order, fast delivery and easy to install by DIY people. If further information is needed simply go online to view videos and it steps you right through the process this will allow me easy of comfort of no more bulbs bouncing around during travel and causing lights not work with LED they stay in place with this unit being sealed unit to prevent moisture & loose bulbs...

Everything is working perfect and thank you for the follow up. I will be buying more when the time comes that I need something you carry and I recommend you to all of my friends and colleagues
Good light and easy to install
Drop in replacement for my old lights. 10+ year old trailer and the original lights were coming apart and the sockets were starting to corrode.

Still working great!
Good Exact fit for my Carry On car haul er
Fast and quick delivery, but housing was a little beat up and the side marker lens was cracked. Needed better packaging.
Excellent!! Normally the lens begin to discolor the first year, but the lens covers are still bright red. Also, no issues on the install.
Great selection , quick delivery
These are a bolt-on replacement for the stock lights on my Lowes 5x8 trailer. I got two of the "passenger" lights, because I moved the license plate to the back ramp/gate, and I got a separate license plate light for that. These lights work very well - I used heat shrink tubes with a low temp solder ring in them, to splice the connections to the stock wiring.
Haven't tried them on the road yet, but these seem well made. The edges of the lenses are flush and there isn't even any molding flash. I tested them and holy heck are they bright! Someone would have to be blind to miss the brake lights on these.
The studs are the same spacing as the round incandescent tail light units that used to be pretty popular on utility trailers.
The back of the light has a color code guide (a very nice touch) and notes that the mounting studs are the ground return. Not mentioned is that there's also a white wire (the one with the ring lug) in case you don't want to rely on the chassis ground. Personally I recommend having a continuous ground wire for your trailer lights; chassis grounds can be unreliable, especially in a corrosive environment.
Much better than the trailer's original tail lights which occasionally did not work because of a poor connection inside the light housing. These are brighter with an improved connection to the harness.
These lights were an exact match to my previous lights. They were trouble free to install, though they could use a couple more inches of lead wire in my opinion. That wouldn't prevent me from buying them again. etrailer is among the best online retailers I've ever used. They provide the end user with lot's of product information as well as great installation instructions and videos. You know both what you're getting AND how to install it.
The tail lights that came on our boat trailer were the $1.95 incandescent variety. They quit working after the first season. Replaced them with these sealed LED units and they have worked fine ever since.
Well it is red, an LED tail light, and it works just fine. What else could someone want? A very fine price, and it was. So if you need to rewire your hauling, auto, or other trailer, I recommend this product. etrailer also has kits to do the whole trailer.
They work. Question is for how long? Submersible tail lights don't seem to last too many years.

It is important to note that there is a Lifetime warranty on these LEDs and a 3-year limited warranty on housing, lenses, and wiring.
Product arrived in good condition and was as described. Expedited shipping that I requested and originally paid for was not fulfilled and the package arrived later than promised. When I requested a refund of the expedited shipping charge etrailer refunded the charge immediately without question and I was charged the normal ground rate shipping instead. As I have come to expect with etrailer customer service was top notch and I was made whole when expectations were not met. This is what keeps me coming back.
Perfect match to other side on boat trailer only LED .
Hooked up and worked fine. Not as bright as most LEDs but way better than old style bulbs that break and corrode .
Product and service brilliant.
One the big things in service have been sorted, eg. good product, value for money (not cheapest) delivered in good condition in a predicted timeframe, it's the little things like an email with tracking url that has ALL the information you need... WITHOUT HAVE TO TYPE IN A TRACKING NUMBER , NAME, ZIP ETC. And same with review, click on a url in an email and enter your comments with pictures .....SIMPLE. so many other companies just make these types of things too complicated and onerous for the customer to provide feedback. Also each person in the process is named! Brilliant, personal and just nice. I wish you guys were responsible for all of my transactions for all the things I buy online. Thank you to all of you at retailer fantastic job.
