Question:
what do you mean by a 80 trailer, I have a trailer that hauls a 18 ft c/c boat and the trailer is about 20ft long so 25 ft of wire should be enough right?

Expert Reply:
The 80 inches means the width of the trailer. Trailers that are over 80 inches wide are required to have two side marker lights, one on each side.
The Optronics Submersible, Under 80 Inches Trailer Light Kit with 25 Foot Wiring Harness, part # TL5RK, is designed for trailers under 80 inches wide. The 25 foot length of wire that comes in the kit should work fine with your 20 foot long boat trailer.
If you are needing a longer 4-way wiring harness I have the Optronics 35 ft. Wishbone 4-Way Trailer Wiring Harness, part # A35W42B. This is just the wiring harness, so this would need to be ordered in addition to the # TL5RK trailer light kit.
I am including a video link of the trailer wiring and light replacement demonstration.
