You could use the Optronics kit # TLL160RK for your 2000 Ranger boat trailer. These tail lights are great for marine trailers as they are sealed and have a waterproof construction.

This kit includes 2 red LED tail lights. These lights will need to be hardwired to your trailer, and have a separate ground wire. For some LED clearance lights the part # MCL32AB would work as well.

If you had a different style of light on your trailer that you wanted to stick with email me back a picture of the trailer taillights and I'll take a look to see what we have that would work.
