If you dunk your trailer as much as I do every year then just go with the cheap set and replace them every two years. If you don't want to do that then IMO I would get the LED's.

Benney's $6.99 each.. If you take them apart and grease the bulb and socket it should last a season. Or mount them up high on top of fenders or guide posts so they stay dry.

I had good luck with the Wesbars. The light capsule is sealed pretty good. Still grease elec. contact points and (lightly) silicone seal lenses to keep water intrusion to a minimum.
Also recommended practice to unplug lights when dunking trailer, but half the time you forget to do...
