1 light or 2?

   I am almost fished with my restore on my Bantam trailer and was wondering how many of you just run the 1 left tail lamp or modify and add one to the right side? I am not sure how the cops would do with only 1 hate to modify the original by ing another hole on right side.

	RC, This was asked for the 2A's a while back. The grandfather clause should apply to trailers (checking your local DMV would be smart), however.... My decision was easy. The trailer came with a second hole and a bracket (removed to duplicate the original bracket) so I certainly won't fill in the hole. This also fits with my desire to run turn signals in my jeep. It also helps with signals if I choose to pull this trailer behind my other vehicle. You could purchase a set of magnetic "tow" lights for travelling and then have the single lamp for shows.

	I like your idea of the tow lights at least to carry with me in case I do get stopped, I really hate to alter it for another light.that would be last resort. Now being my trailer came without the tag I need to figure out how to get it registered for a plate. Just finished the wiring and new set of tires yesterday. Thanks for your input Rus

	Mines got the whole cut, and I am tempted to fill the hole to keep it original. Im also warry of getting pulled over for stupid stuff. If your trailer is uncut I would be tempted to leave it that way. IF you do cut it for the love of god, use a hole saw not a jig saw or plasma cutter like someone did on mine.
