Question:

Hello, I am replacing all the light on my boat trailer. My current side marker lights are very similar but the mounting bass is held onto the trailer with white plastic bushings of some type. Do you offer anything like this? Also if I go with light number AL191AB and AL191RB, are these lights submersible? Can I leave my trailer lights plugged into the truck when I load and unload my boat? Thanks

I have a solution for you, but we don't have any clearance lights that would mount with the white bushing you're referring to. If you went with the # AL191AB and # AL191RB like you mentioned you would need the # A91BOB mounting plates to mount them onto your trailer. These can be secure with a nut/bolt or with a self tapping screw into the trailer frame and you can use the same size screw/bolt as the bushings to make sure it's a secure connection. You will also need the 2 Wire Pigtail # A46PB to connect the light fixtures to your trailer wiring. These are submersible lights, so they let water in, but have a drain hole at the bottom of the fixture to allow the water out.

It is always recommended that you disconnect your trailer connector before backing your boat into the water to avoid any electrical issues that stem from water and electricity.
