Question:

I currently have incondesent 6 1/2inch bulbs mounted in a grommet horizontal for tail lights. Im looking for led replacements that are waterproof and will except my current 3 prong connection. I see you have a couple of choices that look like they would meet my needs. The 10 diode vs the 48 diode? Any suggestion on best unit would be appreciated. The lights are for a 2006 nitro 591 boat trailor and I want the most reliable LEDs. Ive had multiple issues with incondescent Lights taking on water after only a year

The more diodes the LED lamp has, the brighter it would be so if that is a concern then go with a model that has more diodes. You can take a look at the 48 diode model, # STL70RB, in the review video I have included. These lights use a 3-prong wiring harness like # A45PB. I cannot promise that it will be the same as your existing 3-prong connector. If you have to make splices, I recommend sealing out water using liquid electrical tape, # SWC50122.

These lights can be mounted using grommet # a70gb and, if a bracket is needed, # BK70BB. Otherwise you would need an oval hole that measures 6-11/16 inches wide and 2-5/8 inches tall for the light and grommet to fit in.
