Cheers
They only cost £10 a pair and came with bulbs too,may even have bee less i'll have to check.
Most camping and caravan centres sell them and the most i've seen them for is £8 a side,i think ebay sell complete trailer boards this would
give you a possible few metres of rear lighting loom too.

just remember the reflectors are no good, being triangular for trailers. the reason i didnt use a lighting board was that there were so few lights on
it. i wanted the full range, 2 reverse and 2 fog etc.

The make of the ones i used were "Equipe" and all versions were E marked.
Allways best to check though as syd said,i've been caught out on some nose cone indicators before.

I've just fitted two new ones to my trailer for the grand sum of £6.06. They need a reflector as well as they don't have one built in but
they are only a quid each. I fetched a trailer board for a trailer I built and it was only £11 but the individual lights are better quality. Artic
trailer lights are good and don't cost a lot more.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

i'll drink to that bob, theres a lot to be said for cheap solutions that will do just fine. i ended up getting lashed and spending nearly £80
inc delivery on my back lights...
