    Best place to buy LED trailer taillights

    Have a buddy with a late 90's model Nitro. One of his LED tail lamps has lights that have started to fail and he needs to get new ones. Need to be able to hardwire then (doesn't have the normal 3 prong plug). Which BBC sponsor should I have him call?

    Eastern Marine has a good selection with several different brands and styles available. They are a BBC sponsor.

    BBC Sponsor, yes. BBC discount, no.

    If you are still looking, check out Optronics LED lights. Excellent service and lifetime warranty.

    Etrailer.com is where I bought everything for my boat trailer. Lights, all new disc brake setup and new receiver hitch when I bought the new truck.

    Submersible and waterproof have different meanings. Try and locate the waterproof ones.

    I 2nd this. E-trailer had everything I need for a complete LED swap of all my trailer lights. I even got tail lights with built in back up lights that my trailer was not equipped with. They look every bit factory and were very simple to install. All plugs fit the same. I did have to add one wire for the back up lights, but that was easy!

    In general harbour freight is not the best place where you want long term items of better quality. Im not surprised they only lasted that long especially submerged in water. I prefer optronix myself got mine from etrailer they had it all ready to ship out and been on several years no issues.
