I own a 2006 rack and roll that has inconsistent lights. I’m having some issues with the lights and am considering converting to led. Do you sell the parts needed to completely convert the trailer to LED?

The Replacement 4" LED Tail Light for Yakima Rack and Roll Trailer # 8880212 are the correct replacements for your current incandescent tail lights on your 2006 Yakima Rack and Roll trailer.

To convert the running lights you can simply replace the 194 incandescent bulbs for 194 LED Bulbs # ARC68FR. Yakima does not offer the Side Marker Light # Y8880178 in a LED option.
