I know there is probaby no such thing for a trailer ( :rolleyes: ) but before I try to mount the lights on my upright float on guides I would appreciate any tips before hand. The tag location is one but how about grounding because of the loose guides. I saw one rigged up like that before but never got a chance to talk to the guy. I really would like to keep my lights out of salt water or any water. I think the lights up on the guides meets Fla laws. Anybody do this to their trailer?

Re: Water proof lights

I break too many lights to go LED. I just wash the salt out and spray with contact cleaner. Replace when needed.
