Looking For Guide Posts With Trailer Tail Lights That Go On Top
Updated 11/13/2025 | Published 10/26/2025
Question:
Do you have trailer tail lights that go on the guide posts? These would replace the tail lights on the trailer completely. My trailer lights keep getting water inside so I want to put on very top of guide posts to stay out of water.

Hello Josh, thanks for reaching out. We do offer a set of guide posts with LED lights on top. Take a look at the following:
- CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons with LED Lights for Boat Trailers - 40" Tall - 1 Pair # CE27740
The LED lights can be wires to the stop/turn signals if needed, but it is typically recommended to wire them to the running light circuit for the best nighttime visibility.
