Question:
I presume just about any small trailer light could be attached using RTV silicone only, making sure the wiring will fit 12v and ground. ?

Hey Jeff, yeah that's a pretty safe assumption. You could use RTV sealant like the part # LT37467 to attach basically any trailer taillight like you noted. What kind of trailer do you have?

I have a truck camper. The issue was with the tail braking, backup, and turn signal lights it tu=ns out /hat all that needed to be done was to clean the factory stock connections. Definately needed to be done. Makes me wonder how much $ is spent doing all that was needed plus "we need to replace". Could get ugly fast, especially for thoughs who a=e not DYiers. Fortunately it seems like just about everyone is first willing to try, and with a little help from you it all works out in the end. See ya, Jeff
