You don't. You go buy a new bulb

I guess you meant to buy a new bulb assembly? Having a hard time getting the original bulb assembly to slide out of the bracket. Afraid to force it as I'm afraid I'll break something.

Yes. It is sealed so no water can get to it.

This is probably a really good time to switch over the trailer lights to a set of submersible LED's. I found it really difficult to find a replacement unit for the original Weslow so simply changed them out. The LED's are MUCH brighter too!

Cant remember what brand but i did buy a complete trailer LED kit for about $70 Cdn and swapped out the housings & everything about 2 yrs ago. Rather than pull the new wiring thru the trailer though i just spliced into the existing wiring using a skrink-wrap style connector & then coated each connection with liquid electrical.

LEDs installed. Still no right turn signal, but they look cool!! Anyone want a set of submersible Wesbar lights?
