Sonically Sealed, Waterproof Trailer Light
The waterproof construction of this light makes it ideal for use on trailers that may be submerged, like a boat trailer. The housing and lens are sonically sealed together to create a single unit, which means that water will not get into the light and damage the diodes or circuit board.
PL-2 Wiring Connection
This light has an industry-standard PL-2 connection as pictured above. The light accepts a 2-prong plug (sold separately). The plug connects to 2 of the points on the PL-2 connection for power and ground. And the plug covers the unused third point on the connection to seal it against dirt and moisture.
Recessed-Mount Light
Recessed-mount trailer lights install underneath a housing or a grommet (A70GB) sold separately. These lights will extend into the mounting surface and require that a hole be cut into your trailer.

Yes, I ordered six BUL12CB led lights, but I received six MCL 131RC210B side marker lights which I did not order. I just send an email to etrailer to find out what can be done about this. I don't want to have to pay a return fee and I wanted these lights by 9-14-2022 for an upcoming horse show.
by: Steve04/04/2017
Perfect fit. Looks great with other led tailights. I've bought other items from etrailer in the past. I've never been dissatisfied.

These reverse lights dress the back of of our flat beds nice and there real bright.

Lights were easy to install. Twenty minutes and both backup lights were done.

I called and spoke with Lisa D for a special order product that E-trailer needed to order directly from the manufacturer and have it added to their website, and Lisa D kept me updated every step of the way. She got the products order and shipped with a very quick turn around time, which was great b/c I couldn't find any company that could assist me with ordering the lights that i wanted. Very pleased with E-Trailer and Lisa D.

Ordered new LED clearance lights, taillights and clear interior lights to replace the non LED versions. They were shipped immediately with a confirmation. They were exactly as illustrated and what we needed for our horse trailer. Also came at a nice price!!
Would recommend shopping on their site

Have had these installed on our boat trailer as a replacement for the original light for a year now and still working great every outing. Products from etrailer never disappoint.
by: Scott E.04/11/2016
These lights are awesome. We originally installed them on one of our heavy duty utility trailers and now we are adding them to our flatbed utility truck as well. Nice and bright, sleek design, easy wiring, and great flush mount fit all add up to a really terriffic product!!
by: Dana B05/29/2017
Added these lights to rear bumper (ranchhand) of my truck. Perfect fit and throw a lot of light. I use them in no and low light situations for hooking up the tow bar for towing my Jeep and for backing up.
by: James07/14/2018
As always Etrailer comes though with inventory on hand.They send parts in a timely manner and quality is number one.

See what our Experts say about this Optronics Trailer Lights
- What is the Candela Output of Optronics 6-1/2 Inch Incandescent and LED Tail Lights?I do recommend you move to LED lights as they are going to last much longer than the incandescent lights on your horse trailer. As far as light output, Optronics generally measures their lights in candelas instead of lumens though at a distance of 1 foot candela is equal to lumens so you should have a good idea of how bright the lights are. I contacted Optronics and the representative was able to give me the candelas of each of the lights you were asking about. The incandescent # BU70CB...
view full answer... - Oval LED Reverse Lights with Grommet for Flatbed TrailerWe have exactly what you are looking for in terms of an LED reverse light that fits with a grommet for your flatbed trailer. The Optronics LED Backup Light for Truck or Trailer - 6 Diodes # BUL12CB or the same light with 10 Diodes # BUL10CB can be mounted to your trailer with PVC Grommet for 6-1/2" Oval Trailer Tail Lights # A70GB and you will just need a 2-wire pigtail for the lights. For this you can use 2-Wire Pigtail # A45CB or Right Angle 2-Wire Pigtail # A49PB. I have added links...

- How To Prevent Water From Getting Between Oval Trailer Light and GrommetThe Optronics LED Backup Light for Truck or Trailer part # BUL12CB is submersible yes but the fit inside the PVC Grommet part # a70gb is not water tight. Therefore, water could indeed get between the light and grommet but the grommet is not really designed to keep water out but rather just to hold the light in place. However, if you were to add gasket maker like part # LT37467 around the light and inside the grommet that would then give you your best chance of keeping water out.
view full answer... - Recommended Clear/Frosted LED Replacement Backup Light Equivalent to Optronics ST70RBFor backup lights for your horse trailer I recommend the # BUL12CB Optronics LED Backup Light for Truck or Trailer - Submersible - 6 Diodes - Oval - Clear Lens. This has the same dimensions as the # ST70RB at 6-1/2" long and 2-1/4" tall. The depth is less at 1-3/4" since it is an LED and not incandescent. If you want to replace the grommet when you replace the lights, I recommend the #a70gb PVC Grommet for 6-1/2" Oval Trailer Tail Lights. I have attached a video review for your reference.
view full answer... - Reverse or Utility Lights to See When Backing Up Cargo TrailerIf your trailer has a 7-Way connector and the vehicle side has the center pin active when the vehicle is in reverse then you can install backup lights on the trailer and wire them to the center pin. You can use 2 of backup light # BUL12CB 2 of grommet # a70gb 2 of bracket # BK70BB And 2 of pigtail # A49PB If you do not have a 7-Way but just a 4-Way instead you could wire a utility light such as # TLL48FB in with the running light wire on the trailer and have the utility light run on a...
view full answer... - Is There a Class II Trailer Hitch Receiver Available for a 2008 Chrysler Sebring ConvertibleThe only trailer hitch receiver option for your 2008 Chrysler Sebring Convertible is the Draw-Tite Sportframe # 24871, which is only a Class I hitch. Due to the design of your Sebring, there are no Class II options available. This trailer hitch has a Gross Trailer Weight (GTW) of 2,000 lbs and a Tongue Weight (TW) of 200 lbs. I checked an online version of a manual for you Sebring and if had the same weight capacities that this hitch has, but you will want to check your copy of the owner's...
