I want to replace my standard trailer lights and marker lights. I was thinking LED. Anyone have a good recommendations for a good long lasting brand? There are tons on amazon but don’t want to buy garbage.

Innovative Lighting. If you post pics of your existing lights, I may have them in stock. We don't carry that much on lights these days, but have some of their inventory here.

I got some from china freight years ago still holding out well. They aren’t the push in type they are the ones that bolt on on rear corners under the steps.

I got mine from Benlow, who freely admitted they buy em in bulk from China.

They are probably ten years old now? Still working fine.

Several of the local trailer manufacturers buy from these people. You may want to look at their catalog then Google the part numbers.

When LEDs were relatively new, we had to go to a truck stop to buy them as the truckers were using them first. There was a place in Fontucky I believe that had a whole shop that sold everything. It was called Utility Trailers, but I don't think its there anymore.

Anyway, most boat trailer places sell them now as well, you can call the usuals like Adrenaline, Shadow, Extreme, etc.

The place your thinking of is Mayen
I’ve purchased plenty of lights from them.

I’ve purchased the well known brands and the cheap brands. Just make sure they are sealed to keep the water out.
Some of the well known brands are
Truck lite
Maxxima
Grote
I would recommend staying away from Grand General.

buy the maxxima on line and feel bright for doing so. Quality lights and competitively priced online.

Hey Bman - What's the issue with Grand Central? I did my trailer in their Spyder version several years ago and have had nary a problem.

Their spyder version is their upper model. I actually have the same version on my boat trailer. However in general they are low quality lights. I went through several stop tail turn lights before getting a good set.

Heck, they are all somewhat low quality lights from what I've seen. When we talked about this years ago, I went to every truck place I could find around me and I looked at all of them. The GC Spyder version look better than any of the other brands, that was for sure, IMO.

By the way, haven't talked to you in a while, so good to chat with you.
