yes! i'm using them in my van and as soon as 1 burns out on my trailer i'll
be putting them in the trailer too! i bought them because i was
experiencing a frequent burned out tail light on my van and the trailer from
all the bouncing and bumping it gets over the road constantly breaks
filaments in standard bulbs. i thought that the LED bulbs might curtail
that problem. i'm tired of checking my lihts on the trailer before i roll
out and finding one not functioning 100-200 miles from home at night. i'll
report back on the trailer lights as i bet i'll be putting them in before i
go to sebring in early march. that is a long trip to have a burned out
tail light bulb . i'm pretty much a stickler for all illumination
functioning and even more so with trailer lights! i really do want someone
behind me to know what i'm signalling as opposed to the zillion utility
trailers out there that rarely have functioning lamps.
chuck.
i thought about halogen bulbs for the trailer but feared they would expire
at the same rate as the regular bulbe were failing. i do think brighter is
better but pricing and longevity is an issue too....c.,
