The new boat we are buying has one busted rear light. I figured since I am replacing that anyway, why not replace them with LED lights. Can I just use the existing and splice the new lights in or do I need to rewire the trailer?

Thanks

I just attached mine to the old wires. Should work fine.

Piece of cake. Should plug right in. Search the internet. They can be had for pennies on the dollar. I will post a link later.

tennja is correct, no need to rewire

Thanks guys. Looks like it will cost me about $90...does that sound right?

Wow. That's really expensive. Academy has them for $59, so you know you can get them even cheaper online.

You should be able to do it for around $50.00

$50??? All the light. Both rear lights, the light bar under the outdrive and the amber light up front?

Ok not all that stuff but the two rear lights will cost you $50.00 the light bar can be picked up for around $25.00 and each marker lights I have seen for around 5-7 smackers each.
So, yeah, what you said around $90.00

If you're buying online $90.00 sounds about right for all the lights once you add in shipping. $50 or so for just the set of tail/turn lights. If you go so far as to get the kit with all the wires you might just as well replace the wiring too. It will only add about 15 minutes to the total job.

Its sad when we all agree that $90.00 is about right for trailer lights!

I think I need a

Just had to use it, sorry

didn't mean to ... you know

Whats sad is all the spare bulbs I have and have never used for the boat I'm selling...but I think I too will go LED on the next trailer.

....and deepv is wrong.....

When I replace this set, hopefully not soon, I will go to LED. I think they are brighter, and with multiple led's in each you can loose one or two and still have light on that side.

Oh, I need the trailer to be brighter 'cause I are so dumb
Thought I would beat someone to it
