Replacement Tail Lights on Malone Microsport XL Kayak Trailer  

Updated 05/18/2020 | Published 05/14/2020



Question:

Are the tail lights in a 2017 Malone Microsport canoe / kayak trailer submersible? What etrailer part number should I use to replace them?

0

Expert Reply:

Yes. The tail lights on the Malone Microsport trailers like the # MPG460XT are submersible. You can use the # STL28RB & # STL29RB to replace these lights with another submersible light or go with a completely sealed and waterproof light set with the # TLL9RK. I do recommend going with the # TLL9RK waterproof lights just because of the added protection and durability you get with this application.
