Replacement Tail Light for 1990 Douglas Boat Trailer
Question:
I bought a boat and the trailer is a 1990 Douglas that has Wesbar tail lights. The brake/turn signal bulb on driver side somehow broke and after I got it out I couldn’t read the number on it. I tried to take other out but was afraid it would break. I tried a 1157 bulb but didn’t work. Thanks.

Expert Reply:
All of our Wesbar Tail lights that are incandescent bulbs use a 1157. To get your replacement bulb, you will need to remove the other bulb and read the number on it.
Since you seem concerned about breaking your lights, it may be a good time to consider upgrading your tail lights. I recommend the following LED options:
Waterproof, Over 80" LED Trailer Light Kit # TLL160RK
Miro-Flex LED Trailer Tail Lights # STL28RB & # STL29RB
Waterproof, Under 80" LED Trailer Light Kit with 25' Wiring Harness # TLL56RK
