Time to replace my led tailights. Tried to order online from the trailer manufacturer. Couldnt order without creating an account 🤔. Nah dont need an account. Tried calling , asked them if they srill had the old style that they have used for years and are on the trailer photos on their website. Asked me to send a photo, i say no dont need to they are in the pics on your website. No they say send a photo. About now i go nah, over it. Consequently does anyone have recomendations.

I know you have already got some replacements but for the benefit of others. I have had a very good run out of Hella lights. TWL sell an option with 9m cable already attached and potted. Means for most applications it's possible to just join at plug. Saves heaps of stuffing around extending cable with no possibility of water getting into any join. Stuff any excess up into draw bar box section and if damage occurs on plug lead just pull some out and rewire plug.
