Question:
Iam looking to replace an Optrinics boat trailer light passenger side with a model number ST-36 RH. It has a three prong plug. I realize you have a one LED substitute in STL0066RBG. But do you have anything that is not LED that will replace the ST-36 RH with a three prong plug or even one that gets hard wired?

Expert Reply:
Hey Jeff, you could use the part # ST17RB for the driver side and the part # ST16RB for the passenger side. These are both three wire assemblies with incandescent bulbs like you are wanting. You'd just need to cut off the 3 prong connectors you have and hardwire them like it sounds like you already knew you'd have to.

Hey Jeff, how did the swap to the incandescent trailer lights go with the ST16RB and ST17RB? Your update could make it easier for the next person replacing their Optronics lights.
