All I've suffered lately is a burned out rear trailer light bulb.
Trouble is... by the time the bulb burns out, it's usually rusted to
it's bracket inside the tail lamp.
I splurged and bought an LED replacement kit which includes two tail
lamps (one with a clear licence plate light/license plate bracket),
two amber clearance lights...and the wiring harness for both boat and
the vehicle. (plus the usual bolts, locking screws, clips, connectors
etc.
$69.00 at WallyMart.
