Features to know about

Brighter, More Efficient Lighting: 5-Diode LED Design

Older incandescent bulbs can dim or fail quickly, but this light’s 5-diode LED setup is built for lasting brightness and efficiency. With a power draw of only 0.045 amps at 12.8V, it puts out a clean white light through a clear lens while using very little power. There are no fragile filaments or bulbs to replace—just solid, reliable illumination that keeps your license plate clearly visible day or night.

No More Worry About Water Intrusion: Sonically Sealed and Submersible

If your trailer ever gets backed into the water, this light is ready for it. The housing and lens are sonically sealed into a single waterproof unit that blocks out moisture completely. Even when fully submerged, it keeps the internal components safe from corrosion or failure. That sealed design means dependable operation whether you’re towing on wet roads or launching at the ramp.

Built to Handle Shock and Vibration: Durable SMT Construction

Rough roads and vibrations can ruin weaker lights over time, but this one uses surface-mount technology (SMT) to keep the LED circuit board securely in place. SMT construction not only resists shock and vibration but also helps distribute heat more evenly, so the LEDs last even longer. It’s a tough little light that holds up when the ride gets bumpy.

Quick Mounting: Integrated Steel Bracket with 3-1/2" Centers

Installation is straightforward thanks to the included steel bracket that resists corrosion and mounts on standard 3-1/2" centers. The two-wire pigtail makes wiring simple—one lead for power and one for ground—so you can connect it to your running light circuit without extra fuss. With overall dimensions of 8-1/2" long x 3" tall x 2-5/16" deep, it fits neatly and securely wherever you need license plate illumination.

by:

The license plate holder looks good. I was not satisfied with way it was designed to mount. There were only two mounting screw holes, which I didn't feel was adequate for mounting on a travel trailer. The rubber gasket that came with it didn't seem to serve a purpose, for it didn't extend beyond the outer metal edges to seal against water nor did it act as pressure seal between the bracket and mounting surface. LED's work very nicely. Lite up the license plate very well.



by:

Never received it. Called before I placed my order to ask if they shipped to the post office under general delivery, I'm a full-time traveler. Was told yes,twice!The item was returned from wherever it was delivered to. When I called them about not receiving the order, I was told that they don't do general delivery. wth?



by:

I bought this because I was replacing the low-mounted old-style factory tail lights on my 5th wheel toyhauler with some snazzy narrow LED ones on the sides. This solved the need for separate mounting & illumination of the license plate, to work with the new lights.



by:

it was cracked when I Received it. do to how it was shipped. it was shipped in a plastic back instead of a box.



by:

well made. Old plastic one broke after 42 years. This should last 100 years on my travel trailer.



by:

It is the perfect replacement for our damaged license plate light on our 2017 Airstream Flying Cloud. Great quality product and well packed.

It works as expected. Great light unit. It replaced one we damaged on our motorcycle trailer and was a perfect match.



by:

So, our 5th wheel had these not-so-efficient incandescent tail lights, which our friends found truly difficult to follow in the pouring rain one Spring Day, could barely see the flashers when we were experiencing troubles.
Opted to replace existing taillights with LED assemblies, thus necessitating an after market LED License Plate Holder.

The Optronics was chosen and has truly worked out well in our application, ample lighting to illuminate the License Plate in various conditions. Wiring and mounting the item was fairly straightforward once RV wiring was sorted out.
Being on an RV, I never hope to test the submersible claim, but your average rainfall has not dampened internal components.



by:

Delivered as promised. Had what I needed at fair price.



by:

I think it works fine



by:

Perfect fit, used existing holes in trailer, exactly as described.



by:

Sturdy by having the metal bracket and the piece of foam helps to make a tight flat fit



by:

Exact replacement for my rv license bracket at a good price and quick shipping.



by:

Too early for a full review, just installed and worked on my boat trailer but didnt got in the water yer.



by:

Replaced the originals on my trailer. Was very happy to find the original equipment manufacturer.



by:

Fast shipping and a great product!



by:

Cover for light kept falling off and there’s no way it’s water proof



by:

Easy to install. Fished the wires up to the new trailer light



by:

Nice simple license plate light. We just re did the rear door on my trailer and this light was a very simple install



by:

Mounting holes lined up perfectly. Installation was a breeze.



by:

Hooked up and fit without issue. Foam pad is a nice touch.



by:

Replaced the rear tail lights.on our Keystone Hideout with the Bargman LED tail lights. Didn't have the license plate holder so order the license plate bracket with the LED lights. Works good and looks good too. Works well and illuminates the license plate.



by:

Item arrived but not the best of quality. Lens and cap are not weather sealed as expexted



by:

Order was delivered in a timely fashion and works as expected thank you I love etrailer!

Thank you Bill! I'm glad we had what you needed!



by:

Flimsy piece of garbage. Would not buy again. LED is bright but the way it mounts is a joke the whole plastic housing is held together by a tiny paper thin piece of tin. A 2 year old could break it off with one hand. Going straight into the landfill



by:

My trailer was a 2012 and it worked perfectly, all the dimensions were all the same. Bolted it right up. One thing back in 2012 there was only 1 black wire for hot but the ground came from the bolted tag to trailer. I accidentally bought the 2 wire (my mistake) so I just grounded the light and ground from the trailer to each other, works Beautifully. !!

See what our Experts say about this Optronics Trailer Lights

  • Why is There a Driver and Passenger Round Optronics Trailer Tail/Stop/Turn Light
    The Trailer Tail Light # ST24RB is labeled as the passenger side because the driver side option, part # ST25RB, has a clear section on the underside of the housing to illuminate a license plate on a bracket like part # LP10SB. If you already have a light dedicated to the license plate then you can definitely use 2 of the passenger side options for your trailer. Attached are some review videos for you to check out. These light assemblies ground through the mounting hardware and then you...

  • Is License Plate Bracket Needed when Using Cargo Carrier # C18113
    If you wanted to mount your license plate to the Curt Cargo Carrier part # C18113 you could but we don't have a specific way to do so. You could attach something like the part # LP35BB to it if you'd be willing to modify the carrier. Now that said we've found that when license plates are obscured by cargo carriers like this police officers generally are not bothered enough to pull people over and give them a hard time. Using a rise adapter to try and gain more ground clearance isn't...

  • Option For Adding License Plate Holder And Light Kit To Hollywood Rack Sport Rider Bike Rack
    Hello Stephen, thanks for reaching out. We actually get this question a lot. There is a way to add lights and a license plate holder to the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider bike rack, but there is not any kind of custom fit kit for this. Typically when people want to add a license plate holder to a bike rack, they need a light for the plate and they want to add a taillight kit as well. For your tail light signals you can mount some lights like part # 20174 to the rails of the bike rack with...

  • License Plate Light for License Plate Holder for Kuat Piston Pro X
    Hi Larry; something like the Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Light # LPL56CB would be the best option for the License Plate Holder for Kuat Piston Pro X # KU49RR. You can place this between your license plate and the holder. The # 328-003-71BE would also work since it is a full frame that fits around your license plate. You can connect the wires on the light to the Hopkins Endurance Easy-Pull Harness # HM38134 so you can plug it into the 4-way on your vehicle for power. Any big...

  • Can A License Plate Be Mounted On the Swagman Bike Cover
    I do have an option for you but the Swagman Bike Cover for RVs part # S24FR does not have a spot for a license plate. If you want, you could most likely attach the license plate with some zip ties or you could mount the license plate elsewhere with the Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Light part # LPL56CB or the License Plate Mount part #LP10SB.

  • Recommended License Plate Relocation Bracket To Use With etrailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier
    When it comes to using The etrailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier - 2 inch Hitch # e98ZR, I would use The Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Light w/ Bracket - 5 Diodes - Clear Lens # LPL56CB to help relocate your license plate so its not blocked out by the carrier, and attach it using zip ties. The bracket has a 5 diode light that will help illuminate your license plate if it's plugged in. I attached a review video link below.

    The Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Light with Bracket - Submersible # LPL56CB is submersible and will work with your trailer. On The LED Trailer License Plate Light with Mounting Bracket # 328-003-70BE if the lights are submerged they will stop working because they are not sealed correctly.

  • Replacement Tail Light Options For a 2020 Jayco North Point 5TH Wheel Camper
    The Command Electronics Lights # 328-003-85 & # 328-003-85L are the closest lights we have to the lights on your 2020 Jayco North Point 5th wheel. These lights do not have the reverse light function so they only have 3 wires. If you wish to retain the reverse lights you can use 2 of the Dual LED Trailer Tail Lights # CE86FR. You will need a separate License Plate Mount # LPL56CB as these tail lights do not have the ability to also act as a license plate mount.

  • Replacement License Plate Holder and Light for Shorelander Trailer
    Often the license plate holder has an integrated light that requires replacing the entire holder as well. I recommend the LED Trailer License-Plate Light w/ Mounting Bracket - 2 Wire - 5 Diodes - Clear # LPL56CB because there are no bulbs to replace and there is a lifetime warranty on the LEDs. You will need to cut the wires and reconnect the new ones. If you have something more detailed, send me a photo and we can continue to troubleshoot.

  • Light Kit and License Bracket Holder Recommendation for the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE
    For your application I recommend the Light Kit # 20174 and 2 of the Mounting Bracket # BK70BB. These will mount under the horizontal bars for the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE # HLY84FR. When it comes to the license plate bracket I'm not quite sure what you could use though because any bracket with a light that we carry, like part # LPL56CB, is going to require more space to mount it than this bike rack provides. You might have to mount this kit to the horizontal piece as well because of this.

  • How to Determine Correct License Plate Light for Trailer
    License plate lights are universal so there aren't any specific fits for a 2018 Hyundai trailer, which means in order to determine the correct one, you only need to measure the width of the mounting holes. Knowing this spacing will allow you to get the correct light; for example, here are a few options: - 3-1/2" Between Mounting Holes: Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Light with Bracket # LPL56CB - 3" Between Mounting Holes: LED Trailer License Plate Light with Mounting Bracket # 328-003-70BE -...

  • Can a License Plate Be Mounted to the etrailer Cargo Carrier
    I don't see any reason that you couldn't mount a license plate somewhere on the Curt Cargo Carrrier # C18100, but there aren't any parts that are specifically for this. Because of the shape of the bars on the carrier, your best bet would likely be just using some zip ties to secure the plate to the carrier. If you wanted to wire in a license plate bracket with a light you could use the Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Light with Bracket - Submersible - 5 Diodes - Clear Lens # LPL56CB....

  • What Wire Gauge Is The Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Light?
    The Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Light with Bracket # LPL56CB uses 20 gauge wire. This thin wire is all that is needed to power the led light as it only draws 0.045 amps at 12.8 volts.

  • License Plate Relocation Bracket for Viking Solutions Stack Rack II 2-Level Cargo Carrier
    It is good to note that when using a hitch mounted accessory like the Viking Solutions Stack Rack II 2-Level Cargo Carrier # 310-VSR201, that your license plate will be hidden when you have cargo loaded up. While Viking Solutions doesn't have a kit dedicated to relocating your license plate, we do have some options here at etrailer. I recommend either using the Mount Bracket # LP10SB or # LP5SB for your application. You will have to drill holes through the carrier, but after you do so...

    For the 19x47 Curt Cargo Carrier # C18110 I recommend using the Light Kit # 20174 with 2 of the Mounting Bracket # BK70BB and the Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Light with Bracket # LPL56CB. You will need to connect the black wire from the license plate light to the brown wire of the wiring harness that comes with the light kit. You may also need an extension like part # 9653P to reach the 4-Way Flat connector on your vehicle. Please note that there isn't a light kit that is designed...

  • How To Wire a License Plate Bracket with Light Like the LPL56CB
    In order to wire up a license plate holder with light like the # LPL56CB you'll just need to find the running light circuit on your trailer, so that this light turns on any time your trailer lights are on; if you've got clearance lights you can tap into those or you can tap into the tail lights. You'll want to use a circuit tester like the # PTW2993 to determine which wire carries power for that circuit, but that is how you would want to wire the # LPL56CB. It's a two wire installation,...

  • Submersible License Plate Light and Bracket for Boat Trailer
    We do have license plate lights that are submersible and can be used on your boat trailer, though the Optronics LED Trailer License Plate Light w/ Bracket # LPL55CB is not submersible.

    The best option we can offer you to replace the tail lights on your trailer is with the Optronics Fleet LED Trailer Tail Lights part # TLL12RK which are 6-1/2" long. The 6-1/2" long tail lights all fit in about the same size cutout so you should not have any issues. I would not be able to inform on the compatibility of using a different size light with larger grommet.
