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.

Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 4-Pole Flat Connectors
Easier to install than expected. Working fine.
It does what it says on the tin. Easily lit up my XJ so I could tow it. Only regret is that by making the connections at the rear, you don’t get the front market lights on the toad. I should have connected the running lights diode in the harness under the dash so all the marker lights come on at night.

Roadmaster Tail Light Wiring Kit with Bulbs
This was a good option for our 2020 Chevy Equinox because it does not tie into the tow vehicle electrical system and runs directly from the Motorhome electrical system.
Put this into a 2002 Jeep Liberty. Good directions. Drilled out the lower part of tail light housing and install bulb sockets into it. You may have to deburr the tail light housing a bit and manipulate the tangs on the bulb socket but is fine. I put in 1157 LED bulbs :) Good stuff!

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 Tow Bar Wiring Kit - 4 Diodes
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.
Installed on new Ford Maverick Hybrid pickup. So far so good. Survived 8000 mile West coast trip with no problems.

Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 4-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit
I installed this myself along with a tow bar from another company at the same time, in about 4 hours. installation was straightforward and worked perfectly. saved about $800 in total labor.
Excellent quality and engineering. Installation requires a fair amount of mechanical sense and ability.

Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights - Red LEDs - 4-Way Flat Connector - Wireless
VERY GOOD SERVICE I HAVE ORDER THINGS FROM FOR YEARS I THINK THEY ARE THE BEST BAR NONE
Test connection went perfectly. Will see how it goes when we hit the road in May. The lights look well made and should last me a long time. Thank for the great service!

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 Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - LED Bulb and Socket - Red
This kit did the job very well. I could have bought each part separately and saved some money, but I went with the comfort knowing all these parts will work together to accomplish the job. I couldn't figure what LED bulb to use for both brake and turn signal. I routed the wire along the truck wiring harness for half the way to the front, then slipped it into the frame channel for the rest of the way. I used a Curt heavy, round 4 pin plug at the front grill. It was a bit of work and took many hours but came out clean!
I installed this on our 2019 Equinox towed. Love the convenience of just plugging in the towed vehicle. The most difficult part was deciding on what part of the light housing to drill the hole for the light socket.

Heavy Duty Magnetic Tow Lights - 20' Wiring Harness with 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector
Overall it worked fine. Easy to use. We did encounter some high winds that twisted the light sideways once. Magnet strength otherwise is strong enough.
A very easy way to light my jeep when towed without having to cut into the jeeps wiring system.

Roadmaster Standard Magnetic Tow Lights
They were shipped fast and arrived quickly. These are quality lights with very strong magnets. I installed them on my Jeep in no time after making some steel brackets for the tubular aluminum bumper. Would be nice to have 5 or 6 magnetic clips to place along the wire to secure it to the vehicle. I highly recommend these lights.
These lights have worked flawlessly for the whole 2023 camping season on my RV towed vehicle. I mount them on the rear of the roof so they are nice and high above bicycles on a hitch mounted rack.

RoadMaster Bulb and Socket Set for Tail Light Wiring Kits
Bought this light kit to install in the un-used bottom position in or 2005 Honda CR-V. No need to tap into vehicle's wiring harness. Easy to install, works great! Highly recommend.
Perfect fit for my 2001 Jeep Sahara. Still working.

Blue Ox Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - Integrated LED Bulb and Socket - Red
The tail light kit was easy to install, but I had to replace one of the lights within three months. The lights don't appear to be very durable. I purchased a different LED bulb as a replacement and it appears to be working good now.
Your products have been perfect, good fits and quality products. The towing base plate for my ford Fiesta fit with little modification and the ability to use standard tools. The instructions were right on. The tail light wiring kit also was easy and works great. Shipping was fast and delivery arrived as indicated. I will continue to do business with 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
Negative battery disconnect system started not working after less than a year Had to go to local Chevy Dealer to have the battery disconnect system disconnected as was causing whole electrical system to shut down at inadvertent times

Blue Ox Tail Light Wiring Kit - Bulb and Socket
I needed to wire our ‘17 Chevrolet Sonic for towing behind our Motorhome. My local shop wanted over $xxx to install such wiring. Online I found the Blue Ox wiring kit and decided to do it myself. The kit and instructions were very complete and informative and it took me about three hours to complete the installation. The time consuming part was removing and reinstalling trim and panels to hide the wiring inside the car. The thing I like most about this kit is it’s independent of the cars wiring system and I’m very happy with it.
I put this base plate on with the assistance of my wife very easy to install. Do recommend the video to install

Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 7-Way to 6-Wire Hybrid Cord
My E-trailer experience was outstanding! From the great selection guide to the delivery to the installation support. The installation videos were very helpful. I had two installation issues that were answered with a prompt phone call. One call was on a Saturday morning. I highly recommend E-trailer!
So far so good. Self installed on 2018 Ford F150. RV side was a breeze. Written instructions are weak. The truck side included economy wiring kit which required cutting tailight and brakelight wires in order to tap diods into lines. If doing it again, I would order the Hopkins custom wiring kit HM56009. It doesn't require cutting wires. It plugs into factory connections.

Curt Universal Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles
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
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.

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.
