When selecting an LED light, if the description states it is waterproof or submersible then the light can be submersed in water.
The item you selected, Waterproof, Under 80 Inch LED Trailer Light Kit with 25 Foot Wiring Harness, part # TLL9RK, has encased LED diodes. Water can enter the light lens but not the LED casing. There are also 2 holes that allow water to drain out of the lens. Part # TLL9RK are used for the rear trailer lights for running, turn, and brake lights.
For sealed sidemarker lights, I would recommend Sealed, Mini Rectangular LED Trailer Clearance, Side Marker Light, 3 Diode - Amber, part # AL82AB. This light is also a submersible LED light, but used as a sidemarker light on your trailer. In addition to part # AL82AB, you may also need wiring, Two Wire Pigtail for Sealed Trailer Clearance, part # A46PB, and Black Mounting Bracket, part # A91BB, to install on your trailer.
Another content team member answered a question about the waterproof aspect of part # TLL9RK, and he took pictures showing the LED casing.
