Want to wire the existing lights on the towed vehicle to connect to tow vehicle. What would be nice is something like a reverse tail light converter. IDK any susggestings as to how to do this?

Expert Reply:
Although there are two different methods of wiring a towed vehicle that uses separate turn signals, we recommend using the 6 diode kit part # 154-792-118158, which includes the converter you mentioned.
I will link you to several of our flat towing FAQ articles, one of which will tell you exactly how to wire your Samurai. Refer to Option # 2 on the Diode Installation Instructions for a Dinghy with Separate Tail Light Wiring FAQ page.
Keep in mind that in addition to a tow bar, base plates and wiring, you will also need safety cables if you do not already have them. For straight cables, use part # RM-645. If you prefer coiled cables, use part # RM-643. Many states now require a supplemental braking system like the Roadmaster Even Brake, part # RM-9400.
