Question:

I want to replace the stock lights on my enclosed box trailer I have for my Lawn Care Equipment. I feel light these will work. By the picture they look the same as what I have. Question is, What all do I have to buy with these lights so as soon as they are delivered to me I can put them on and have them operating? Do I have to buy wiring connectors / ends they go onto these to convert from what I have now. I am ready to order but I want to order everything at one time for a turn eye switch over. Thanks for your advice.

First you are going to want to make sure that light # STL22RB is going to fit in place of the lights you have now. This light is 6-1/2 inches long and 2-5/16 inches top to bottom. If you require a different size let me know and I can determine what we have. There also may be a number on the light housing (not the lens) that will help identify what you have.

If this light will fit then you will need a wiring harness # A47PB for each light. It will plug into the back of the light and you will splice the blunt cut ends to your existing trailer wiring. The red wire will be wired to the turn signal circuit and the black wire will wired to the tail light circuit. The third (white) wire from the pig tail is the ground wire and will need to be attached to a good clean ground on your trailer.

If you damage a grommet when you remove the old lights you can use # a70gb as a replacement.

I just notice they make a LED 48 Diode light also. Will it work and fit on my trailer light the 12 Diode would. Thanks for your help.

As long as it is the same size and uses the same grommet, you will be fine. If you looking at the STL22RB compared to the STL70RB, they will fit the same 6-1/2inch oval grommet, part A70GB. The 48 diode does consume more amperage, but they are still both a fraction of the draw of an incandescent equivalent.
