Expert Answers about Chevrolet Boat Lights


  • Can Optronics LED Trailer Tail Light Be Used On Boat Trailers
  • The Optronics LED Trailer Tail Light # STL88RCB is perfect for boat trailers. This light does not carry an IP rating, but it is sonically sealed with a waterproof housing and submersible. This is the case for many of the Optronics lights which are often used on boat trailers.

  • Will Non-Submersible Clearance Lights Work on a Boat Trailer?
  • The Square LED Trailer Clearance Light, # MCL36RB, is non-submersible, so if it gets submerged in water, the possible damage includes short circuits, cracked lenses and burned out bulbs. This light is not sealed, and does not have a drain hole which lets water out if it does get in, like some submersible lights do.

  • Parts Needed To Transfer Lighting Signals While Triple Towing An RV And Boat Trailer
  • To triple tow you wouldn't be running both connectors to your Ram. You would connect the RV's 7-pole to your Ram and then connect the boat trailer to a connector on the RV. Since you just need lights for the boat trailer you'll just need a 4-pole connector # HM38138, some heat shrink butt connectors # DW05744-10, and some additional wire for length. You'll splice in the 4-pole connector to the lights on the rear of your RV to transfer your lighting signals from the RV to the boat trailer....

  • Connecting Boat Trailer Lights Behind 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited During Flat Tow
  • As long as the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C55124 is installed after the Hopkins Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit # HM56200 it should cause the lights to work on your boat trailer. Do understand that the Hopkins was not designed for tandem towing so there is a chance you could have some power supply issues with the extra demand from the lights on the boat trailer. You might consider using a set of wireless lights like the Custer # LIW-AGKIT-SG since they don't have a limited range...

  • Replacement Tail Lights for an EZ Loader Boat Trailer
  • I do not know exactly what lights your boat trailer came with nor would we have an exact OEM replacement but we do have the Miro-Flex LED Trailer Tail Lights part # STL28RB & # STL29RB which are a submersible LED tail light that should work well for you. The lights mount via two bolts placed 2" apart on center. The circuit boards are sealed, which means that water will not damage the diodes or circuit boards. The lights do not come with sealed wiring connectors but you can add them using...

  • Will Replacement LED Tail Lights on Boat Trailer be Compatible with Current Incandescent Lights
  • There is no harm in using LED Tail Lights, like part # STL28RB & # STL29RB, along with incandescent lights on your boat trailer. They will work just fine together. I am linking our selection of LED tail lights for you to look through but if you can let me know the dimensions of the lights your are wanting to replace I can see if we have a similar LED option available.

The clamps are designed to work with trailer frames up to 3" wide x 4-1/4" tall.

  • Is the Trailer License Plate Holder with LED Light Waterproof for Boat Trailer Use
  • The Trailer License Plate Holder with LED Light # 328-003-71BE uses non-submersible lights. Although this would not work well on your boat trailer, I have a different solution. I recommend using the LED Trailer License Plate Light # LPL82CBB. This light is submersible and will be comparable to the light from the license plate holder. You can mount this light over your license plate attached to your trailer as it is right now. If you still need a license plate holder, we have the Enclosed...

  • Replacement Boat Trailer Lights for 2-3/4" Rough Cutout and 2-1/4" Grommet
  • I have a solution for you, but we do not have any replacement lights that will fit in those grommets. Instead, you can use the LED Clearance or Side Marker Light # MCL002AXB (amber) and # MCL002RXB, which require a rough cutout dimension of 2-3/4", so they'll fit in your existing holes and provide you with the light solution you're looking for. These are waterproof LED lights so they're the perfect solution for a boat trailer as long as the rest of your lights are already LED. If your...

  • Replacement Clearance Light for Boat Trailer
  • In order to select the correct clearance light for your boat trailer, you would need to measure the light and know how it mounts. For example, the Optronics Clearance Light # MCL63RB is 4-1/16" long x 1-1/4" wide x 1-1/8" deep and is a surface mount LED light which mounts on industry standard 3" centers. I've added a link to each of our clearance lights for you to take a look at.

  • Replacement Light Kit for Boat Trailer
  • The light kit you would want as a replacement for your boat trailer depends on the width of the trailer. If it was less than 80" wide I recommend the Submersible, Under 80" LED Trailer Light Kit # TLL9RK while if your trailer is more than 80" wide I recommend the Submersible, Over 80" Trailer Light Kit # TL16RK.

  • Replacement Tail Light Lens Needed for a 2000 Tracker Trailstar Boat Trailer
  • Although I am not able to look anything up by your boat trailer VIN I did search the internet for your specific boat trailer and it looks like most of the 2000 Tracker Trailstar boat trailers have light assemblies that look like the Optronics # ST17RB. We do have replacement lens for this assembly but it would be up to you to determine if these will fit or not. Part # A39RB is for the main face while part # A37RB is for the side marker portion. I have attached photos giving dimensions...

  • Optronics LED Light for Boat Trailer
  • Part # STL0067RPG does work for your boat trailer. The new light is the same dimensions as your old one, however the mounting studs might not line up with the factory holes in your trailer and may require new holes to be drilled. I have attached an install video to help you through the process of getting the new light installed.

  • Reverse Light & Wiring For Boat Trailer
  • So in order to add a reverse light to your boat trailer, all you need to do is connect the wiring from your junction box or 7-way directly to the reverse light's wires. For reverse lights, if you don't already have wiring at the junction box or your 7-way, what you can do is add 14 Gauge Primary Wire - Blue - per Foot # DW02414-1. Then you will simply run that wire to the reverse lights, which you can connect with butt connectors. The exact parts you will need to do this are the following: -...

  • How To Send Brake And Turn Signals Through A Travel Trailer To A Boat Trailer
  • You would need to wire in a 4-pole connector like # 18004 into the tail lights of your 2020 Heartland Mallard M260 travel trailer to send the signal from the travel trailer to the boat trailer. This will require some additional additional wiring # 16-4B-1 and some heat shrink butt connectors # DW05744-10 for a watertight connection. Once this is complete you can plug in the 4-pole connector from your boat trailer into your travel trailer.

  • Do Boat Trailer Tail Lights Have to Be Installed at the Very Back of the Trailer
  • Thank you for your purchase of the Combination lights # STL9RB and # STL8RB! If the light locations were established by a boat trailer building company then I see no reason why they would place the lights in a place that would cause legal troubles on the highway, but if you've built this trailer then it might not be a bad idea to move the lights further back just to help with visibility. Our article is written with the mindset that the installer is establishing lights on the trailer which...

  • How To Choose Correct Replacement Trailer Wiring Harness for a Boat Trailer
  • In order to choose the correct replacement wiring harness for a boat trailer you need to know two bits of information, the length of the trailer and type of trailer connector used. If it is just a standard 4-pole then you can use the 35 Ft 4-Way Trailer Wiring Harness part # A35W42B which can be trimmed down if needed. In regards to the trailer lighting issue, this is most likely caused by a short or a loose connection so you just need to start checking and tracing wires both at the tail...

  • Is Peterson Piranha Clearance Light # M170A Submersible
  • The Peterson Piranha Clearance Light # M170A is submersible and can be used on a boat trailer application. It would be an odd animal to name a light after if it wasn't submersible!
