Question:
Need help picking out a set of Boat trailer lights. Preferably I would like the whole kit Brake and Reverse but am open to suggestions. I would like something Bullet proof even if they cost more. LED and 100 waterproof. I am TIRED of changing these things out every year. I use the trailer primarily in salt water.

Sounds like you need something like the Submersible Over 80" LED Trailer Light Kit w 25' Wiring Harness, Item # TL16RK. The lights in this kit are sealed and have a waterproof construction. The LEDs are very efficient and last 50 times longer than incandescent bulbs. This kit is for trailers that are over 80 inches so if your trailer is under 80 inches then you can use a similar kit, Item # TLL9RK.
Since you want something waterproof that will hold up in salt water, I recommend using the Deka Heat Shrink Butt Connectors, Item # DW05744-10, to get some extra protection for you wiring. Remember to always disconnect your wiring before backing it into the water.
if your trailer is over 80 inches then you will also need additional clearance lights like Item # MCL93RB or Item # MCL84RB.
I have also attached links to videos for you to check out.
