Where to find 21" long Sunrader tail light replacements
You could use these if you don't want to run separate high powered backup lights Or just search for 6" oval trailer lights and pick what you like.? note that I ran a wire over from the taillights to the backup spotlights. You could also run spotlights from your ladder or bumper, or ? ???????????? The LED Flasher replacement is not a direct plug in replacement, you must make some spade terminal adaptors to wire it in. You can probably find a direct plug in for more $'s, look for an 86 toyota pickup LED 3 spade flasher if you want easy, more expensive... Then Inside of my Sunrader rear dinner huge rear window, up top center, I have a fairly blinding LED spotlight wired into one of the rear ceiling lights with a led blue glowing switch. If I need additional lights backing up, or if something goes "Bump in the night, in the woods" I can throw a lot of light on it, if I want. Up there inside the window is also my Rear View Camera that is constantly on when I am driving and sends to a receiver that fits over my normal dash rear view mirror. All of my lights are LED, except the headlights. I'm still playing with the best headlights, LED, HID, Xenon Halogen... |

These would probably be the easiest to install On Mon, Nov 6, 2023 at 3:35?PM Lee Riddle <binrydin@...> wrote:

After looking at the stock original tailights, even if I could find new in the box originals, I wouldn't want them. They are poorly built with not very good connections to the bulbs or the grounds. It's all "cut wire against a metal slit' connections, really crap. On Mon, Nov 6, 2023 at 3:47?PM Lee Riddle <binrydin@...> wrote:

Thank you SOOOO much Robert Himler for all your posts to help me with the Sunrader taillights.? I forgot to mention that a camping and kayaking buddy welded me a kayak and bike carrier from a Harbor Freight hitch basket, to carry my fat Perception Swifty kayak on it's side, but diagonally between the two taillights.?
So the outer taillights should be the regular night taillight and also be the turn signal taillights, otherwise the kayak would be blocking the other lights next to the outer ones.? I have not YET put that kayak carrier on THIS Sunrader, as it doesn't have a square hitch yet.? The square hitch would also block the path to where you put the pole key to lower your spare tire. I still want the 3 6 inch taillights on each side, but the most important light and turn signal needs to be the most outer light. ? I assume I can just screw the 6 inch lights onto the plexiglass panels into which you drill holes to run the wires through.? Right? But I was rather overwhelmed by all the info you posted, and since you are so into all that advice, would it be too much to ask of you, Robert, if you could just tell me which taillights to buy for my application I describe above? -- Julia - Scottsdale, AZ |
Hi Julia, Here is an all in one unit, Tail, Brake, Turn and Backup, you would only need a pair to do everything. Check out their video, the turn signals strobe! Currently $30 minus 25% off. You could mount these way out to the edges of your rig to give more clearance for your kayak . These are the ones I got that dont have a backup light and required two pairs, $21 less 10% coupon per pair (I wired in two LED spotlights separately angled to the rear and sides for those late night backups in the woods... NOTE: When drilling mounting holes in the plexiglass cover use a sharp bit, don't apply too much pressure, and drill the holes slightly oversized of the screws. Otherwise you might get plexiglass cracking at the holes. |
Hi RZ, in a previous post I showed how you covered up the rectangular hole in the backside of the coach body where the old taillights were. By using a piece of plexiglass. In my case, and the original person asking about replacing the taillights, we both had fiberglass Sunrader's. So I left the original holes in the sunrader body alone and bored the plexiglass cover plate holes a little larger than the screws . The new LED lights then fasten on to the plexiglass cover plate. |
