Haha!!! I did the same thing to my trailer lights brother. I also added removable lights, with a two wire connector extention, that I can hook on the transom tie down eyes. So there's a total of four lights between the trailer and the boat.

Smart! I think I might do something like that as well! I hate having to change these all the time is more of an annoyance than anything else! Good idea!🤙

Sent you an email with transom light pics. I'm also bought to spot weld some holes in an added bimini bow. @@perfectfitboating

Good video cap. And my trailer always have some problems especially the break system

Thanks for the comment cap! You know, you’d think someone would come up with something that is strong enough to last in the saltwater environment. Some type of spray coating that repels water off the metal parts of the trailer. Might be up to innovators like yourself to invent something, cap! 😉

Fasten the lights to the bracket with nylon wingnuts. They will not corrode And you can remove them before you put the trailer in the water. Move the lights to higher ground, Like up by the trailer hitch. Then when you come out of the water simply reattach the lights with the nylon wing nuts

from where did you get your heavy-duty trailer coiled wire adapter??

@perfectfitboating 2 ай бұрын

Harbor freight I believe

@silentassassin8352 4 ай бұрын

Looks like it's worth a try. The only problem would be is to replace a bulb if it burns out. Corrosion is usually what causes the problems so pick your poison as they say.

I believe those are surface mount LEDs in the housing so they aren’t replaceable.

Watched the whole video just to see how you spliced the side light into the regular wire. Anyone help would be appreciated!

@perfectfitboating 5 ай бұрын

Your marker light should have a black wire and a white grounding wire. You’re going to splice the black wire to the brown wire of your harness. One side is brown and green the other is brown and yellow. Cut the brown wire and splice the black wire in there with a heat shrink connector. Then the white grounding wire to the trailer. Hope that helps!

@joemauma5035 8 ай бұрын

When the cops pull you over for a bad trailer light, I usually find it's an intermittent ground going to sh!t. I use the same kit and heat shrink connectors, but add a separate wire for the grounds and eliminate the chassis grounding. I feel trailer lighting kits should come this way, opening up 5 grounding failing points to save one wire, doesn't make sense. PS no offense, but the wife's electrical videos are more entertaining.

@perfectfitboating 8 ай бұрын

I agree and I might just do that to eliminate the grounding wire to chassis. It’s probably some DOT requirement. No offense taken, id rather watch her than see my mug on the screen too 🤣🤙

I got to stop watching KZbin videos and get to work lol. Awwwwh shit. Use lots of silicone on the bolts and nuts, just be sure the ground still connects, then slather the shit all over it… Or continually wash it every time you stick it in and lube it 🆙👍🏻 Rinse and scrub the trailer with fresh water every use after dipping in saltwater. Make sure to pull the bearings apart and grease them occasionally so the wheels don’t just all of a sudden outrun you going down the highway. Inspect those axles 😂 AND springs…………….

@@perfectfitboating I’ve got a 16 foot wide transom that I have to do that too pretty soon. I have to remove two rudders, a dinghy platform, and outboard motor bracket that I no longer need. I bet those 6’ long stainless rudders weigh a ton or more each? I think I’d rather have a guy who’s done it before do it, though? What do you think 40 gallons? How much is that gonna cost holy crap

@perfectfitboating 9 ай бұрын

@@daha7864 bigger the boat the bigger your wallet will have to be. 16’ transom is wild and I don’t think I’d touch that. Not before doing some research first. Might be more than 40 gallons! 😳
