Recommended Replacement LED Trailer Tail Light Assembly for Keystone Montana Fifth Wheel

Updated 03/18/2022 | Published 03/17/2022

Question:

I am interested in swapping out the old incandescent taillight assemblies on my 2017 Montana 5th wheel 3160RL for new LED taillight assemblies. I am wondering if you have an LED assembly which contains replaceable bulbs when they go out, or do I need to replace the entire assembly every time a bulb goes out? My current incandescent assemblies are a rectangle shape 8 1/2inch x 4 1/2, and include running, turn signal, brake, and backup lights. Do you have a recommendation? Many thanks...

Taillight assemblies such as the LED Trailer Tail Light - Stop, Turn, Tail - Red Lens - Passenger Side, # 328-003-81M1 do not have bulbs to replace. These are fully constructed with the Light Emitting Diode placed in the housing instead of a removable bulb design. Use # 328-003-81LM1 for the drivers side as this has the license plate bracket and the light on bottom side to illuminate the license plate. This is an 8-11/16" x 3-7/8" LED Trailer light with 22 diodes that provide stop, turn, and tail light functions. It is a surface mount to the trailer and has a 3-Wire pigtail. The white wire is the ground, black is for the tail lights and the red wire is for the stop and turn lights.

Please note the linked product review and installation video below. If your current lights are surface mounted, this will be a great option for LED replacement and will be easy to install. Especially if you follow the linked video.
