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.
Combination Lights for Trailers Over 80" Wide
If a trailer is 80" or wider at its widest point, then it requires rear clearance lights in addition to basic trailer lights. These clearance lights indicate the width of the trailer when it is viewed from the back.
To meet these requirements on a flatbed utility trailer where the bed extends past the wheels, you can install combination trailer lights that include the rear clearance function. For proper mounting, the lights must be installed at the widest points on the rear of the trailer - one on each corner.
Surface-Mount Light
Surface-mount trailer lights install using a flange or bracket with mounting holes. These lights lay flat against the trailer surface and only require a small, often pre-existing hole, for wiring. Mounting hardware is used to secure the light to the trailer.
PC-Rated Lights
A PC-rated light produces a 90-degree angle of light to either side of its centerline for a total of 180 degrees of coverage. This beam pattern can be clearly seen when you are standing directly in front of the light, as well as when you are standing on either side of the light. When properly installed, this type of light can function as both a front clearance light and a side marker light or as a rear clearance light and side marker light.

Easy to wire, easy to install, and so far no issues. Only thing I wish this came with was some wire connectors with shrink tubing. Other than that, works as needed
by: Norman Ross09/03/2022
I was pleased to get the order so quickly, but the parts bag was split open and half of the parts were missing. Because the outer box had a hole in it. I would appreciate another parts bag, because I don't know what parts are missing.
by: James11/10/2022
Working well. We did not use the license plate hanger because it didn't have a light on it. Ended up ordering another one with a light.

One stop shop for a light overhaul, had to buy 2 smaller side lights to have the full set of lights needed to re-run all the lights and wires for my boat trailer, but this kit gave me 90% of what I needed.
I did have water get into one of the boxes, but a little epoxy around the wires where they enter the box, and problem solved. Best use of a day during my vacation was re-running all of the lights. No more lighting issues every time I put the boat in.

Ordering this light kit was the first time I've used eTrailer.com.
What a pleasant experience. Ordering was a breeze and the follow-up customer service was first class.
Whenever I need trailer parts, it'll be eTrailer.com for me. I will recommend this web site to anyone I know.
I like to shop around online to find the best deal. I went to a competitor's web site that read "low price match guaranty". So I called them on the phone. Their rep said, "We can"t price match eTrailer.com". It was the exact same item. 25% lower price at eTrailer.
Fast shipping, excellent packaging.
And BTW, the lights worked out great.
by: Craig05/30/2019
I received the product in a timely manner. The problems started with installation. I was replacing an existing, non-functioning light set and the wiring appeared to be identical. I made some temporary connections and the red rear lights seemed to work with all functions. However, after hard-wiring and installing all of the lights they failed to work. The package included a bar code to access some installation videos. Unfortunately, these videos did not address the specific product I had, so they were of no use. After hours of experimenting I called for support. Support was friendly and had a technician call me back. After a couple of minutes of chatting, he informed me that this kit would not work with aluminum trailers and that I would need to install a separate, dedicated grounding connecting from all devices. Would have been nice to know that in advance, and perhaps there should be products and packages specifically for aluminum trailers.
by: Aaron Price01/29/2017
Very easy installation! Had an issue with the running lights NOT working after installation. I emailed the team at etrailer.com and they helped me TROUBLESHOOT the problem. It was my vehicle. They went ABOVE and BEYOND to help me find the problem when the light kit installed perfectly the 1st time! Only took about 2.5 hours but that's because I was meticulous about all of the connections and sealing them in heat-shrink tubing for extra protection.
by: Michael 11/19/2020
I recently purchased a used boat trailer that required lights, wiring and markers to be replaced. I called customer service at etrailer.com with a list of questions. The representative was very patient and extremely helpful in guiding me to the product she believed met my needs. The new light package was on my doorstep in 3 days. The lights were exactly what I needed, easy to install, and work perfectly. Etrailer.com will be my first choice for any accessory needed to repair or improve my trailer.
by: Buck E.06/19/2012
This is a cheap kit (made in Tiawan) I wish they sold the same kit with better quality that wasn't LED .The parts that I removed from the trailer were of much higher original quality. I would not recommend this product to anyone. The only parts I used from the kit were the tail lights. and license plate bracket. I threw away the side parker lights and went out and bought good ones.
by: Mike B05/16/2015
Everything I needed was in the kit with good instructions. Delivery was right on time, With sales follow up I don't know how you could ask for better service.
That's why E-Trailer is the only place I shop now.

Hi I am perfectly satisfied with everything I have gotten from e trailer. Will be back if and when the need arises.
Mike B - 06/17/2016by: Frank D.06/29/2011
Was exactly as described, works perfectly with my trailer. Would give it a "Excellent" rating if it had included more thorough instructions for attaching the side marker lights and how to waterproof those. Otherwise great!
by: Ron S12/16/2014
Note this is made in China and not great quality. Should work fine but may not last. You will need a 10mm socket or box for the tail lights.
by: LarryS04/23/2013
There was no information as to the gauge of the wire or if a center brake light was supported. Good hardware, but more documentation would make it better.
by: Dean09/21/2015
Easy installation. Harness, at 25', was just too short for my trailer, which is 22'.

excellent product a nice addition to my tiny house
every thing was color coded was a easy hookup

Good morning I have been well satisfied with the lights I purchased. I was building a tiny house for a friend and I needed them to move it about 350 miles to the Virginia coast they worked perfect. I was satisfied and most importantly she was also. when I need lights again I know who to contact
John - 12/07/2018by: Frank09/12/2014
Purchased this product to rewire a 1980"s double-wide snowmobile trailer. These lights replaced the old ones perfectly, at a great price.
by: Hamilton S.06/29/2013
Light kit was exactly as describe and easy to install, however as others have noted, the instructions are pretty useless. A little common sense takes care of that though. Good product for the price.
by: Thomas 04/26/2021
Great customer service. Quality part. Easy to install and works perfectly.

See what our Experts say about this Optronics Trailer Lights
- What is Amperage Draw of Optronics Trailer Light Kit # TL16RKThe gauge wire that comes with the Optronics trailer wiring kit # TL16RK is 20 gauge. For LED lights like this 20 gauge wire is adequate for the lower amperage draw.
view full answer... - How Does Trailer Wiring with 5 Wires Run to Trailer Taillights that are 3 FunctionI attached a diagram that shows a standard trailer wiring diagram. For your 5 wire setup you'd have the white wire that goes to ground on the trailer frame, the two brown wires run to either side of the trailer for the running light circuit, the green runs to the right for the stop/turn and the yellow runs to the left stop/turn circuit.

- How to Wire Clearance Lights for the Optronics Trailer Light Kit for Trailers Over 80" WideThe 2 black wires for the side marker lights that come with the Optronics Trailer Light Kit # TL16RK are used to power the lights. The clearance lights are actually designed to ground using the mounting hardware. If you check out the attached picture you can see that there is a metal strip that runs from an eyelet to where you will use your mounting hardware. So you will simply connect the black wire to the hole that won't be touching that eyelet. This is also addressed in the attached...

- Does Waterproof Trailer Light Kit with 25 Foot Wiring Harness # TL16RK Come With a Wishbone HarnessI went out to the warehouse and pulled a Waterproof, Over 80 Inch Trailer Light Kit with 25 Foot Wiring Harness, # TL16RK, to double check, and it does come with a wishbone harness. The trailer sided connector has a split running light signal that is run with each turn signal/brake light wire.

- How Do the Lights Mount in Trailer Tail Light Kit # TL16RKTrailer light kit # TL16RK mounts on the heads of the 4 bolts that came with the kit. There are slots on the backs of the lights and the lights will slide onto the bolt heads. There are actually 3 slots per light giving you some adjustability. The amber clearance lights mount through the included mounting brackets but you have to first pop the lights off to access the mounting holes. I have included a couple of pictures showing all of this for you.

- Difference Between Trailer Taillight Kits that are for Over 80 inches in Width and Under 80 inchesThere are different taillight requirements for trailers that are over 80 inches in width vs. ones that aren't over 80 inches in width. If you check out the link I attached you will see all of these differenced highlighted. The over 80 inch kits like the part # TL16RK typically come with additional clearance lights when compared to the under 80 kits like the # TL5RK. I attached review videos for both kits for you to check out.

The lights are also all LED which will draw less power and be more reliable. The wiring harness that comes with it is 25 feet in length and can easily be cut down as needed. It's definitely something anyone could handle as it's not too hard at all. I attached...

Just to make sure, I also measure the Optronics Under 80" Trailer Light Kit with 25' Wiring Harness # TL5RK the same way, and they measure exactly the same, unfortunately. With that said, I may have another option available, but the lights will be completely different. If you look at the Optronics Trailer Light Kit # TL16RK, which technically is for trailers...

- Do You Connect Green to Green on One Side and Yellow to Yellow On Optronics Trailer Light Kit TL16RKThe Optronics Trailer Light Kit for Trailers over 80" Wide - Submersible - 25' Wiring Harness # TL16RK does have the correct wiring colors so you do simply match yellow to yellow on the driver side and green to green on the passenger side.

Trailer light kit # TL16RK comes with 2 additional reflectors, not lights, that you could place as needed. I was looking through the federal requirements for lights and reflectors for various types and size trailers and found that AMBER clearance or marker lights are not a requirement for the center rear of the vehicle but RED clearance lights are required. Exactly 3...

The white wires on the tail lights are attached to the trailer frame, and the chrome bases provide the ground to the trailer frame through the mounting hardware for the side marker lights. You will also need to attach the white wire from the trailer side 4-Way connector to the trailer frame to complete the installation. We have the a video detailing installation of the LED light...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Boat Trailer Lights Not WorkingAssuming you have trailer lights like the # TLL160RK I recommend double checking your wiring. The ground should be separate so that is not a problem. Make sure it is secure on a clean, bare-metal surface. You could either swap the other two wires around to check and see if that is the issue or you can use a circuit tester like the # PTW2993 to determine which is the correct wire. You might also want to check the ground connection on the trailer itself coming from your wiring harness. If...
view full answer... - Replacement Trailer Taillight Recommendation for a Featherlite Utility Trailer 1693I pulled up a picture of your Featherlite Trailer model 1693 and found that the taillights closely resemble what comes with the # TL16RK. The clearance lights of this kit are very similar to what you need as well so this would be a great starting point. For additional amber clearance lights you would need part # A91AB and then for red part # A91RB.

The axle-less design gives you added clearance under your trailer. When using straight axles, the under trailer clearance for off road purpose can be an issue. The Timbren axles allow for more clearance down the middle of the trailer. You also need electric brake and hub and drum assemblies for these axles. I recommend the # AKEBRK-35R-SA...
