Best Towing Hitch Lights of 2025

"I found these lights to be foolproof and plug-and-play. Installation took mere seconds with my trailer hitch's 4 pin connector. I've had them for a week now, and I'm impressed with their brightness and functionality. I attached one pair over my bumper reflectors and another on my bike rack, which greatly enhances safety when my rear lights are blocked. The color-coded plugs and labels make it all very straightforward. I also applied some dielectric grease to the connections for added durability. I’m really pleased with my purchase!"

"I added these lights to my bike rack since the brake lights and turn signals are often obscured by bikes. The heavy-duty double stick tape made installation easy, and everything worked perfectly with my SUV’s factory 7-pin connector. They really enhance the visibility of my rack, and I feel much safer knowing that drivers can see my signals clearly now!"

"These lights were a great addition to my truck-mounted bike rack. They provide excellent illumination for running lights, brakes, and turn signals. I had to buy a converter for my truck's 7 pin plug, but that was no hassle. Overall, I’m quite satisfied with their performance!"

"I found the LEDs super bright, making it clear when I brake, both day and night. The design is lightweight and waterproof, plus installation was a breeze. It even comes with three foam pieces for a snug fit in my trailer hitch. After using the same unit for five years, it still performed well even after some unfortunate accidents. This is definitely the safest upgrade I've made!"

"I had to check if it would fit my vehicle before buying, and it did fit the 2-inch trailer hitch. However, the cable was a bit short for my setup. I ended up needing an adapter cable and had to modify a few things to get it working. So, while it does work in the end, it needed some extra effort and spending for my 2016 Toyota 4Runner."

"I was excited to install this unit, but unfortunately, it didn't work with my Bronco Sport despite following the manual. Immediately, I received error notifications regarding the trailer, and the LEDs never lit up. A disappointing experience overall."

"I bought this to improve visibility when backing into my dark garage. I connected it to a similar plug for the backup light, and it works great. However, I noticed the wiring lead can get pinched between the hitch receiver and foam cushion, which could be better designed."

"I received my light, but unfortunately, the red light doesn’t work at all, only the white one. I wish I had considered the high return rate before buying this. It feels like a total disappointment."

"The product arrived broken, which made me realize how fragile it is. The bracket was loose, and it seemed poorly constructed. Also, the after-sale service was lacking as I did not receive my refund."

"I find it very useful and the water resistance is excellent."

"I connected it to my vehicle, and it worked perfectly without any issues."

"I really love this product; it works great and arrived quickly!"

"The light is nice and bright; installation was a breeze, and it adds a brake light."

"I had to adjust it under my trailer as it wasn't as bright, and it blinks with the signal."

"I ordered these lights for a weekend trip since my trailer lights were down. They arrived the next day and were a super simple solution—bright and strong magnets held them in place over rough terrain. A great product!"

"As I moved from NJ to TN, I needed a rear cargo hitch. These lights were extremely easy to plug in and worked great. I realized there are two versions, and I probably should have chosen the rectangle base for better support. Still, they performed well for me."

"While borrowing a trailer with no working lights, I found these to be an ideal choice. They were super easy to set up and worked perfectly. I would highly recommend them."

"I bought these lights for my Ram 2500, but they didn't fit. I ended up using them on the back of my bucket truck, and I must say, they're really bright!"

"Unfortunately, the hitch wasn't a good match, and it kept sliding off. I also had issues with the light pods being defective; a bad relay caused my fuses to blow."

"Overall, I found this to be a good product that was worth the money, though I wasn't impressed with the packaging and shipping."

"I think this looks good, but I really don't like that it flashes when turning. I would prefer it to function as a steady brake light."

"Unfortunately, this product just doesn’t work at all. I feel like I’ve wasted my time and money."

"I noticed that it doesn't seal snugly against the hitch, resulting in a gap where rain and debris can enter over time. I plan to try some weather stripping to improve the fit. Overall, I wouldn’t have made this purchase had I known all this, although the price was decent and the delivery was prompt."

“I haven't fully installed this kit yet because my 2010 Chevy's receiver has loops for a chain guard, making it tricky to fit. The receiver is standard, so I think many might run into this issue. I recommend measuring everything first. I did test the lights indoors, and they're of great quality. The flashing/warning feature is impressive and will definitely catch attention. I give it 5 stars for quality and features, but I have to take away one star for the fit being thicker than necessary. I might use a grinder to adjust it. I would recommend this if you have the right space.”

“I decided not to install it because the wiring and leg work involved seemed overwhelming and complicated.”

"I experienced individual LEDs burning out just two days after I installed them."

"I found that the male plug doesn't fit standard plugs, and it even disabled several of my truck's sensing abilities. I'd recommend not buying this product."

"While the plug type was correct, the spacing between prongs was off, making it unable to connect properly. It was frustrating to deal with."
