I bought a 94 Featherlight last year, and it does not have lights on the fenders.It’s a real pain driving at night, and not seeing where your fenders are.Aside from getting lights wired onto the fenders, is there anything else you can buy that would work???I’ve thought about reflectors, but not sure they’d give me the effect I want.

I've tried reflectors on the bottom front of the fenders and it didn't really work. I go accross a lot of cattle guards or auto gates (depending on where you are from) and wanted to see the fenders better but the tape doesn't reflect red brake lights very well.
The lights are pretty easy to put on most trailers-you just need to tap into the wire on the top frame/roof mount, run 1 wire down the upwright to the wheel well than over to where you are mounting the light. Should be able to follow the brake wire I would think. A word of advice-use gromments (sp-?) thru all holes and use the lights with the steel protector around it--otherwise, horses that are tied to the trailer will pull the usually used clearance light off......

I have to wire my trailer to install these?? Of course, that's probably what I'm going to have to do in the end...*sigh*...
Yes...you have to tie it into the wiring harness...but it will do what you want...
