I’ve been a recipient of a pair of Dave’s lights.  Worked great.  Thanks Dave!

Like yours, my 18’ trailer is wider than that, but I put the magnetic lights on the frame or fenders 80” apart. Wire could easily be added if you wanted to put the lights on the very outside of the trailer. But it never seemed to be necessary for any applicarions where I have used the lights. Come to think of it I hace probably given away more sets than I have ever used!

>> Good recommendation but I have one question:  Why do they state this?  "For towing applications up to 80 in. wide"  My 20' equipment trailer with currently working lights is 102" wide which is maximum legal width.  Don't understand the 80" limitation?  Does it have to do with running/clearance lights required after 80" width? I have those on my trailer but????

When I go to shows I always carry two sets—one for my trailer (if need be) and one for whoever’s trailer is having light problems. For nine bucks it’s a REAL good buy!
