Roadmaster 6-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles with Separate Lighting
In ordering the parts I got a little confused as to exactly which kit I needed. My motorhome has combined brake/turn signal lights & the car ('03 Subaru Outback) has separate brake/turn/parking lights. Thought I needed the 6 diode kit (which I ordered) until I had all the parts here & read through the instructions for the umpteenth time (BEFORE cutting anything) & then realized what they were doing. Turns out all I needed was the 4 diode kit. Sounds like there won't be any problems returning the unneeded parts since they were never installed. Great service there! Took a lot apart in the back of the car because of the lack of space behind the tail light assemblies, but it all comes apart pretty easily. Also allowed me to route the wiring along side the stock harness. Have a bunch of 1/2" split loom here & used it. Thought I would have lots of wire left over, but I actually had to splice 2 cut offs to make a jumper long enough to get from 1 side of the car to the other. Glad the car wasn't any longer & I didn't have to make up 2 jumpers as with some of the kits! Hardest part was finding a hole in the firewall & getting the harness routed under the dash so as to not tangle with the pedals, etc. I just don't flex like I used to. Everything works fine although it was NOT a "5 minute job".
The diodes and wiring are good and worked well. But the 118158 converter produced a 3.5 volt drop such that the brake lights were as dim as the tail lights. And when a turn signal was triggered the brake lights dimmed even further. I ended up stringing a separate brake wire through the car and re-wiring my truck with a 5-wire connector.

Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit
This product is incomplete. 4 feet more wire and five wires instead of 4 wires. The 4 wires are at least 4 feet short requiring you to purchase more from a local hardware store. This kit also does not combine the brake and turn signal requiring an additional wire. DO NOT be fooled by this kit. If you have a supplemental brake They want you to buy another kit that is impossible to install on the brake switch under the dash. I just added two relays at each taillight to keep the motorhome brake power from mixing with the Explorer power. Very simple and everything is easy to access.
Makes towing the explorer a very simple task. 5 minutes to hook up and your ready to go.

Tail Light Isolating Diode System with Wiring Harness
This product was super easy to install, my total installation time was about 2.5 hours on my Explorer Sport Trac. you won't find a better product or price.
I was looking for something to add to my 2014 Equinox for tail/brake/t-signal lighting for towing behind my motorhome. This system worked perfectly , and couldn't have been easier to install. The hardest part was running the wiring from front to rear ( through frame rails and what-not ). Tail-lite hook-up was a breeze. There was plenty of wire to do the job also. Now the vehicle lites work as a trailer and does not interfere with the normal vehicle lite operation.

Blue Ox 4-Diode Universal Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles
Took a bit to get to the rear lights on the wrx - trim pieces etc. But once there the instructions were easy to follow and the lights work great!
I returned this item in favor of the Curt Bronco flat tow light kit. The Curt kit is far superior to the Blue Ox kit. The Curt kit is totally plug and play no diodes to deal with. I would have bought the Curt kit from you if you sold it. You would be better served with the Curt kit.

Curt 2 to 3 Wire Tail Light Converter
Always have parts in Stock, good prices and always there for you. Return to etrailer.com all the time. Thank you again!
i used this on my trailer so that i was able to use taillights with separate (amber) turn signals, it works like it is supposed to, BUT it doesn't work with LED tails bc it drops the brake wire voltage coming out of the convertor to 10v causing the brake light LEDs to not function properly; i solved this issue with a voltage regulator (10-32v in - 13.8v out) so if you've got a little wiring knowledge or are using incandescent taillights then it will work great for you.

Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 7-Wire to 6-Wire Straight Cord
Quick delivery and product as described.
The install on my Ford Maverick is clean and functional, so this is more of a customer service review... excellent customer service! During the 4-day towing set-up install, the forecast was for freezing temps and my rig was not winterized. I called in mid panic and the motorhome was moved indoors. A few months after using the tow set-up, a minor problem developed. I called and the CSR apologized and said, I can see how that might be frustrating, and a replacement cable (slightly longer) was sent free of charge.

Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit
have successfully completed the installation of the following items that I purchased from etrailer: > Nighthawk RM-676 tow bar > RM-524458-5 base plate > DEMCO Stay in play DM86VR > RM-152 diode wiring kit > RM-156-25 charge wire kit > RM-88400 brake switch relay kit I work slow but methodically. I had no issues other than the high degree of difficulty for a 68 y/o man working alone. This project exceeds the abilities of someone NOT mechanically inclined. There is also the need for some specialty tools. I found that feeding the wiring through the dash, firewall, and underbody was more difficult than installing the front baseplate. Overall, I am satisfied with the function of this installation. I am glad I did it myself rather than having it done. Tow vehicle: 2021 Entegra Emblem 36U Towed vehicle: 2018 Ford Fusion Platinum Energi
It fits the bill--when they say universal that's correct; may not be a "factory" wiring harness but our Super Beetle is 45 yrs old.

Curt Universal Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles
The labels for the Right Taillight Running Light splice were labeled Backwards, to module and to vehicle were reversed which wasted 30 minutes of time. Beware! etrailer may want to get this right with the vendor or risk a bunch of needless returns.
I have bought off of you before everything was great this is the first time that I received something that was not what it was supposed to be or was used before the papers on the installation were all wrinkled and dirty and had writing on the ends of the wire were all cut and the connectors were not on I called your company and they made it right and gave me back my money except for my shipping and they told me just to keep it it's no good to me but thank you and I am still buying off of you

Demco 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 7-Way to 6-Way Adapter Cord
etrailer was extremely helpful in getting me parts to flat tow our 2023 Jeep Wagoneer. More specifically, Noah took the time to research the required parts, offer technical guidance, and follow up to ensure I was taken care of. Top notch service which was much appreciated.
Needed new wiring and diodes for my 2023 Jeep Rubicon. ETrailer makes it so easy to set up all the wiring for flat towing.
