BB doesn't want to deal with the truthful carnage that this thread would get if it was in AG, more like.This has been covered before. BB is content for the thread to stay where it is. Seems we're a bit special..
That section is too full of "what's wrong with my gaylander", and "how do I fix my gaylander without breaking a finger nail" threads.It should, at the very least, be in the gaylanderer section.
I find the forward facing marker lights on mine a pain, even though they aren't bright, they keep catching my eye and making it difficult to see vehicles lurking behind them. I don't even know why you have to have them.Mornin
Light rain and a moderate breeze so far
Was going to fit marker lights to trailer today, it's 45 years old and just has lights at the back
Might go LED for rear lights/ indicators while I'm at it
Undecided as to wheel colour, trailer is white
Stay planted all![]()
Got a strange experience when I first drove my tratter. At night I can see the car behind and its headlights, looking like the car is coming straight at me from the front. All due to reflections from the vertical rear window reflecting off the vertical front screen. Soon got used to it and don't notice it so much after a while.I find the forward facing marker lights on mine a pain, even though they aren't bright, they keep catching my eye and making it difficult to see vehicles lurking behind them.

Sideways facing, I would understand, although that is covered by the reflectors.
Lights on trailers is a simple reg requirement as to what and how many due to length/width, am sure some manufacturers will add more.I find the forward facing marker lights on mine a pain, even though they aren't bright, they keep catching my eye and making it difficult to see vehicles lurking behind them.

Shame that you can't see yourself for what you really are.Shame that a certain person has come on here to hijack the thread and have a bash at others, having done the same in spades on another thread, which I am sure some of you will have seen.
He obvs wants this thread to be moved to AG so he and his cronies can start bullying peeps who post here over there. He more or less said as much.

I have to agree about stalks etc. My old box trailer has the vertical posts you use to lock it down with i.e. to stop it moving when parked and being loaded etc. They are right on both rear outer corners, so visible in mirrors, but not annoying.Lights on trailers is a simple reg requirement as to what and how many due to length/width, am sure some manufacturers will add more.
I actually like the rear marker stalks on our big trailer, which has markers on the side and the front none of which can be seen in the mirrors, except the stalks.
The big horse box doesnt have the stalks the one before (smaller but newer) had stalks.
Towing or reversing in the dark I like to see where the end of the trailer is, and even if its still there.
Dont have issues seeing real cars behind, I guess its something "you" get used too.

I mean the rubber light stalks, I dont find the little light a problem.I have to agree about stalks etc. My old box trailer has the vertical posts you use to lock it down with i.e. to stop it moving when parked and being loaded etc. They are right on both rear outer corners, so visible in mirrors, but not annoying.
The car trailer has those rubber flexi ones which again are useful for parking etc, but they have forward facing bulbs as does the front.![]()
I have to agree, if I am honest, it is far enough away to be reassuring more than anything else, but the ones on the front, really cannot see the point of them.I mean the rubber light stalks, I dont find the little light a problem.
