Drivers can be fined, be banned from driving and get three penalty points for using a vehicle in a dangerous condition, which would include faulty lights.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.autotrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/unnamed.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2100\" height=\"1401\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-77960\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The first two products that Ring has introduced are LED four foot (RCT955\/LED) and six foot (RCT965\/LED) trailer boards with dynamic indicators. Both are PVC trailer boards with two, four function LED trailer lamps that include dynamic indicators, brake lights, tail lights and licence plate mounting.<\/p>\n<p>Both also have two reflectors, one LED fog lamp and come with a six metre cable and seven pin plug. The products also have their E4\/E11 approval &#8211; the only difference between the two products is the length of the board.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, if there\u2019s already a trailer board, or similar, available, Ring has a new magnetic LED lighting kit (RCT802), which is held on by two strong magnets. The kit has two, five function LED trailer lamps, including regular indicator, brake light, tail light, licence plate and reflectors.<\/p>\n<p>The kit comes with a 12 metre cable and a seven pin plug with a four metre cable between lamps. It has E4 approval and is easy to install without complex wiring, making it ideal when the user needs a quick solution and needs to swap the lamps between pieces of equipment.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.autotrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/unnamed-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"865\" height=\"577\" class=\" wp-image-77961 aligncenter\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Finally, Ring has launched a 8\/13 pin alignment cap (RCT735), which ensures correct alignment of a 13-pin plug that also creates a watertight seal for when a caravan is stored away.<\/p>\n<p>Ring Automotive will be exhibiting at the 2026 Auto Trade EXPO, which takes place alongside the CV Workshop EXPO from 10th -11th October at the RDS Simmonscourt in Dublin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While Ring Automotive is primarily known for its renowned lighting range, the company covers a vast array of accessories and components.
