I may be mistaken Shipster, but it's my understanding the legal requirements are set state-by-state, and are generally available on your state's motor vehicle registration website.

For the most part, unless the trailer is real wide, it's stop/turn/tail on the rear, usually the drivers side tail light having a clear window underneath for a license plate, and a couple marker lights forward just before the frame angles in towards the tongue. Check state law for reflector requirements.

Good luck!
