Question:

I’m looking for two top tier lights with brake/ tail/ and reverse functions that will mount to the guide poles on my boat trailer. What is your recommendation?

Hi Cody; the TecNiq Low Profile Stop Tail Turn Light with Reverse # TN22TR you were looking at is a good option assuming you can attach the lights on the guide poles. These measure 15-1/2" long; 1-1/4" tall, 1/2" deep and mount on the surface using screws. They also have an IP68 rating so they can be submerged. If you want additional visibility you can also add the LED Light Kit for Post-Style Boat Guide-Ons # CE27656A which will run off the running light circuit.

What kind of boat do you have?

Hey Cody, how did those TecNiq lights work out on your boat trailer’s guide poles? Did they give you the visibility you were hoping for on the water? Your update could make it easier for others setting up similar lighting.
