Trailer Lights

Seems I'm replacing these basstards at least once a season
water causing corrosion inside making the bulb seat junk...sometimes I have to take the lens off, reseat the bulb after cleaning the contact area...
Had one yesterday where it only worked when I stepped on the brake, but not with the running lights on. Inside was fugly....I tried cleaning it up but nada....replaced the assembly, everything is good again.
I've been buying my lights (individually) at Wallyworld.....7$ per unit.

I know it's cheap, but am I really just buying junk and need to visit an actual trailer shop or WMarine to get some quality lights???

I'm almost at the point where I'm going to put the lights on pvcs well above the water line......not sure what the specifications for license plate location is though???


How do you guys fare with your trailer lights? Am I the only idiot changing these things every season???

...it finally happened, there are no more secret spots
