Features to know about

Reliable Lighting for Everyday Towing: 3-Function Incandescent Tail Light

If you just need a dependable light that does its job, this round incandescent setup keeps things simple. At 3-7/8" in diameter, it handles stop, turn, and tail signals in one compact housing. The 1157 bulb is easy to replace, and the shock-proof socket helps protect it from damage over rough roads. It’s DOT compliant and built for 12V DC systems, giving you confidence that it meets lighting standards without extra fuss.

Built Tough for the Long Haul: Durable Steel Housing and Screw-On Lens

When your trailer sees heavy use, you want lights that can take a beating. This light uses a durable steel housing with a screw-on red lens to keep things secure and stable. The all-metal body resists impact and vibration better than plastic housings, so the light stays in place even after miles of towing on rough surfaces.

Simple Mounting, Straightforward Wiring: Designed for Easy Installations

Installation doesn’t need to be complicated. This surface-mount light attaches with the included studs on 2" centers and connects using a 2-wire design—one power lead and one ground wire. You can bolt it on, wire it up, and go without needing adapters or custom brackets.

Clear Signals When You Need Them: Bright Output From an 1157 Bulb

Good visibility is what keeps everyone safe on the road. This light draws 2.3 amps for stop and turn functions and 0.9 amps for tail operation at 12.8V, giving you strong illumination every time you hit the brakes or turn signal. The bright red lens cuts cleanly through low light so your trailer is easy to spot from behind day or night.

Ready to Match Your Setup: Passenger-Side Configuration With Driver Mate Available

This unit is built for the passenger side and pairs perfectly with the matching driver-side version (ST21RS) if you’re setting up both sides of a trailer. Together they give a balanced look and full coverage for all required rear lighting functions, keeping your setup safe and compliant.

This light barely blinks like something is wrong with it. Plus it looks like the brake is on for this light. There is no issue with the wiring it is all new. The one for the drivers side works with no issue. This one to say the least was disappointing.

You mentioned that it was not working properly and I wanted to ask to see if the ground had been tested?



by:

Not the first time I have ordered from etrailer.
Good
products, good prices and always shipped quick



by:

Lights were exact replacement for the ones I installed 30 years ago.
The old ones were getting intermittent due damage over the years.



by:

work great on my dad car trailer. great light for price.



by:

GREAT QUALITY,I HAVE ALREADY PUT LEDS IN THE LIGHTS. THIS LIGHT WOULD BE GREAT WITH LEDS, THEY SHOULD BE OFFERED IN THEM.



by:

Easy to adapt these tail lights using existing drilled holes. Awesome product replacement. Fast ship. Great customer follow up!



by:

always satisfied with quality and service. etrailer.com returning customer.



by:

Nice to find and obtain these lights as it is very hard to find taillights for a 40-year-old equipment trailer. Bravo.



by:

Everything is great and the shipping was fast. Always good to deal with you guys. Thanks.



by:

This light set I bought a year ago are still great and is close to my old light that is enclosed by wrap around guard so it fits perfectly well and works well..



by:

Well, the UPS man was NOT happy. He chewed on me for not having my name on the package. I reminded him that I didn't send the package. The address, minus the name, would have gotten to me with no fuss; by USPS. Not so with UPS. They need a physical address, not a post office box number. I happen to winter in a mobile home park which has private streets not recognized by USPS. Hence his problem. He had no name to look up and only a PO box #. However, the tail lamps were just what I wanted and they arrived in good shape.



by:

These are very nice brake/turn signal lights. They will get installed later on my fj40 and will require very minor modifications to the rear cross beam. Very happy with these high quality lights and for a very reasonable price!



by:

I needed to replace a cargo trailer light assembly and checked Lowes, Home Depot, a local marine shop and a trailer supply store with no luck, I did an online search and found the etrailer site. The item was ordered and received in 3 days and was exactly what I needed. This was a very efficient and easy process and will be the first place I refer to for any trailer part needs in the future.



by:

I am very happy with these taillights. I put them on my golf cart and they work great. Highly recommended.



by:

Got the tires, wheels, lights, and wiring kit to rebuild an old utility trailer. The website has a wealth of info to help find exactly what was needed. Michelle S. was very helpful (and friendly!) in resolving a delivery question.



by:

My order arrived in good time, well-packaged and complete. The quality of the materials looks to be very good and I can't wait to get them installed on my trailer and bring it back to life.

Etrailer's communication and customer responsiveness is fantstic!



by:

This part was a perfect match for the old fixture that had been damaged.

Sounds like fixture fate Michael! Glad it fit just right and solved the problem for you :) If you ever need anything along your way, keep us in mind.



by:

works great look really good



by:

Tail lights are made of steel not plastic. Mounting should be easy. I bought the item to go on my 1948 Willys Jeep. I am going to paint the inside of the light with white paint and drill a small hole in the bottom to drain any water that may get inside. May need to scrape area around the mounting hardware for a good electrical ground. Good item for the price.



by:

Product Review:I had these type lights on an old Toyota rust-bucket with a wooden bed which still is my most loveable vehicle; can't find these lights locally (N/W NC mountains); found your ad online and hoped these would match those already on the Toy and replace some damaged and rusty; couldn't believe I could get exact replacements, but I sure did; order date March 29 early AM, mailman handed them to me April 31 at 1 PM at my house "in the same year!" They had traveled, according to map, across from the edge of Missouri through the southern edge of Indiana, across the length E-W of Kentucky, SW Virginia to Greensboro, NC, then backtracked on land back to my home via USPS to me. Put them to your ear and you could still hear the Mississippi!!

Give it a big 5 stars!



by:

Used them for the tail lights on my golf cart. They work great and have not had any problems with them.

Very good



by:

Great price and fast economical shipping, just what I needed for my older trailer to keep it original looking.



by:

fast delivery



by:

Quick delivery and reasonable delivery fees. Product is just as advertised-good quality for the low price. I used two of them for a homemade sign for the wall above my model railroad. The lights were wired to a switch and then to an alternating flasher and they "wig-wag" flash just like the real thing! Very satisfied with these lights.

  • Do You Have a Round Trailer Tail Light - Stop, Turn, Tail, that Also Has License Plate Light?
    Hello Allan, I am sorry, but the only ones we have are incandescent as well..... The Optronics Trailer Tail Light - Stop, Turn, Tail, License - Round - Red Lens - Driver Side # ST21RS is going to be what he have that is very similar. If you need the passenger side as well, you will want # ST20RS. What kind of trailer is this going on? Are you adding the lights, or trying to replace one?

  • Is There An LED Version Of The Optronics Trailer Tail Light ST21RS?
    Hi Keith! I have a way to make the Optronics Trailer Tail Light - Stop, Turn, Tail, License - Round - Red Lens - Driver Side # ST21RS into an LED light, but Optronics does not offer this one as an LED. If you replace the incandescent double contact 1157 bulb with something like the ARC 1157 LED Bulbs - 360 Degree - Double Contact Bayonet - 600 Lumens - White - Qty 2 # ARC93FR, it would be a much brighter light. This also includes two bulbs, so you could also do the passenger side ( #...

  • Trailer Lights that Use the 1157 Bulb
    We definitely carry lights that use a 1157 bulb. For example, Optronics Trailer Tail Light - Stop, Turn, Tail - Round - Red Lens # ST20RS uses that bulb and includes the socket with it. However, we do not sell the socket itself individually without a lens. I went ahead and linked a product page with all of our other lights that take a 1157 bulb.

  • Availability of the Optronics Driver Side Round Trailer Light # ST21RS
    The Optronics Stop/Turn/Tail Trailer Light w License Light - Surface Mount - 3-7/8" Round - Driver Side - Red, # ST21RS, is the driver side match to the Optronics, # ST20RS, Passenger Side light assembly that you referenced.

  • Replacement Round Trailer Tail Light For A 4" Tube Light Cover
    Hey Michael, No, the # STL003RFLB has a 5-1/2" diameter so it wouldn't be able to fit. With a 4" spacing you would need to go with a light like the Optronics Trailer Tail Light # ST20RS, which is 3-7/8" in diameter. This should have no problem sliding to the back and has a mounting holes 2" apart.

  • Wiring a Stop/Turn/Tail Light to Molded 7-Way Connector
    The Stop/Turn/Tail Trailer Lights # ST21RS and # ST20RS will ground through the mounting hardware, so the two wires will need to connect to the Hopkins 7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector # H20044 simply by function. The red wire on the lights is for the tail light function, which is the green wire on the molded connector. The black wire on the lights is for the turn signal and brake functions, which are the red (driver's side) and brown (passenger's side) wires on the molded connector.

  • Passenger Side Version of Optronics Clearance Light # ST21RS
    The Optronics light part # ST21RS is the driver side light and the part # ST20RS is the passenger side. It has three blunt cut wires that attach to the back of the assembly that you'd wire to your trailer wiring but it does not have a wiring harness.
