Removable LED lights provide signal lights for your towed car without you having to tap into the car's wiring or run wires under the car. Wireless transmitter plugs into your RV's 4-way connector and sends a signal to the magnetic lights.

- Operates on a standard 12-volt system
- Heavy-duty, non-scratch magnets on the lights provide a secure grip without damaging your paint
- Long-lasting LEDs are more efficient, faster acting, and brighter than incandescent lights
- Sonically sealed lenses keep moisture out and prevent corrosion
- Durable polycarbonate bases house batteries
- On/off switch lets you use the lights as needed, conserving battery power

These wireless, removable tow lights make it easy to add running lights, brake lights, and turn signals to your towed car or trailer. With this setup, you won't need to tap into existing wiring for installation. With other magnetic tow lights, you have to run cords from the lights to the front of the towed car or trailer every time you need to tow. These tow lights work wirelessly to eliminate that hassle. And the wireless design also allows you to move the lights from one vehicle to another in minutes.
The lights attach directly to any metal surface with the included heavy-duty, non-scratch magnets, which won't damage your paint. And the handy on/off switch lets you use the lights only when you need them, saving battery power.
Setup is simple. Plug the included transmitter into the 4-way flat trailer connector on your RV or tow vehicle. The transmitter mounts to the frame of the RV or tow vehicle using the built-in magnet. Turn the switch on the driver's-side light to "on," and attach the tow lights to the back of the towed car or trailer, as far apart as is practical. Secure any excess wire between the 2 lights with a twist tie.
Each light is powered by 4 AA batteries (not included). A blinking LED indicator on the face of the driver's-side light signals low battery. This indicator should be checked every 2 hours to be sure your lights still have adequate power.

very easy to see and use. I hope I never have to rewire another old trailer. Love them.
by: John08/10/2022
I bought the wireless Hopkins tow lights to temporarily tow my new Jeep behind our Motorhome until I could wire the taillights permanently. I liked them so well that I have never wired the Jeep and only use the wireless taillights.

Lincoln MKZ
These things are the best thing since sliced bread!
We have a Lincoln MKZ that already has a hitch on the rear for towing a small enclosed trailer. The thought of having to "hard" wire in a wiring harness for towing behind the motorhome that would still allow the trailer to be towed was not a task I was looking forward to. etrailer suggested these as an alternative. Literally plug and play. Just plug the transmitter into the motorhome, install batteries and attach the magnetic based lights to the trunk of the MKZ and presto! DONE! I hooked the car up behind the motorhome and ran it down the freeway at 60-65 mph and all was good. Worked straight out of the box! Fantastic product!
by: John K07/15/2016
Ordered these because my car towing wiring had a problem and didn't have time to get it fixed. First set arrived but had a manufacturing defect and right hand light didn't work (not etrailer's fault!). Called etrailer and they were very accommodating in sending out a second set which arrived in time. The second set worked perfectly. Good service and extensive follow up by etrailer shows they care. I'll use them for other purchases any time!

Still works great. Save us on a trip when the car to RV connection went [bad].

They work like they're supposed to and are very bright.

Haven’t used them So this rating isn’t really fair

No big deal, install batteries and put on toad !
Should have done this years ago before they cut into my tail light wiring and also had to deal with rusted out 4 prong plug in over the years.

Still the best and not a problem, quality product

Saturn Ion
These work well, bright. They do eat up regular Duracell batteries. After first use of these I switched to Lithium Ion. The lights were noticeably brighter in the daylight sun. The life of the batteries has drastically improved service. I have a habit of removing the batteries when not in use to enable greater duration; they do have an on/off switch built in, but it's so simple to remove them in case of phantom degradation. Over-all, I am very happy with these and installation on the car is a snap. Love them so far. Would buy/recommend to others.

2011 Ford Taurus
Was absolutely 100% delighted with this product. Drove a total of 2600 miles in all kinds of weather and traffic conditions and these lights worked perfectly. Batteries lasted all most to the end of the trip. I'd recommend this set up to everyone who cannot afford to have wiring redone on a vintage trailer.

Day two - the lights work great! Were responsive up to 85 feet. They are bright and should be easy to see. The magnets attach with a strong holding pattern. Thanks.

Product appears to work as represented. Have not had it on the road yet.

Lights work great, and battery life is better than expected. Only issue is potential for paint damage... I recommend that the manufacturer consider a softer landing pad to reduce potential for paint scratches.

will send back does not work

Have to use lithium batteries for them to work, I have a set and mine work with this type of battery in them only thing that needs improvement is they should be rechargeable units

See what our Experts say about this Hopkins Tow Bar Wiring
- Magnetic Flat Towing Light Recommendation with 4-Way ConnectorThe Hopkins # C6304 LED magnetic tow light set is a good choice. The have good reviews and has a 4-way connector like you need. Check out the review video I attached for more info.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights that Dont Want to Power OnIn order for the # C6304 to function you would need to make sure that the batteries are installed properly in the light kit as well as make sure the power switch is turned on. This switch is at the bottom of one of the lights in a recessed opening. Check out the video I attached that covers everything on these lights if you have further questions. Or you can email me back if you are still having troubles.
view full answer... - Battery Life of Hopkins Wireless Magnetic Tow Lights # C6304We've been told that the battery life of the Hopkins wireless magnetic tow lights, # C6304 should be right at 2 hours. But if you use lithium batteries you should easy get double that!
view full answer... - Can I Connect The Hopkins Magnetic Lights To 4-Pin and Still Use Brake ControllerThe Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights part # C6304 are designed to be plugged into a 4-pin connector on a towed vehicle. If you want to use these on the vehicle and plug them into the 4-pin on the trailer you would not have the running lights on your trailer. Also it sounds like you are having an issue with the trailer wiring connector on your vehicle anyway if the trailer lights are not lighting up. I recommend to check the 4-pin wiring on the 2019 Land Rover Discovery for any damaged or frayed...
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Wireless Tow Dolly Lights Where Only Left Tail Signal WorksYou've narrowed the problem down to being the wireless tow lights since you've tried them in a few vehicles with the same result. The easy solution would be that there's corrosion on the pins of the 4-way connector which is preventing the circuits from working like they should which would easily be fixed by taking sandpaper to them to clean them off. If it's not that though it's most likely an internal issue with the transmitter or the lights themselves.
view full answer... - Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights, 4-Way Flat Connector - WirelessThe Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights - Red LEDs - 4-Way Flat Connector - Wireless, # C6304, is sold as a kit only.
view full answer... - Magnetic Tow Bar Lighting Kit Recommendation with Magnetic BaseFor a magnetic set of LED tow bar lighting the Hopkins part # C6304 is a great option. But you should note that this is a wireless kit that requires batteries (lithiums to be specific). These have a stronger magnet and are LED.
view full answer... - Recommended Wiring Harness To Add Extra Visibility to Mercedes B200 on Tow DollyFor a Mercedes B200 there is not a custom wiring harness. Your vehicle is not intended to be flat towed so there is not a harness for wiring to do so as it should be towed with a dolly an thus have the lighting required. If you choose to add more lights to your tow dolly application, you can use a universal wiring harness like the Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights - Red LEDs - 4-Way Flat Connector - Wireless # C6304 to give you the additional lighting.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Hopkins Wireless Magnetic Tow Lights C6304Based on your troubleshooting efforts and the fact that this product did not operate properly on both of your vehicles I am inclined to think the unit has a defect. But you can easily test it, independent of the vehicles, to isolate the location of the issue. Use a 12V vehicle or spare battery to apply power directly to the wireless transmitter portion of the Hopkins Wireless Magnetic Tow Lights # C6304. Connect the battery ground to the pin for the white wire and then apply the battery...
view full answer... - How to Access The AA Batteries For Replacement on the Hopkins Magnetic LED Tow LightsThe Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights # C6304 will have 8 AA batteries total with 4 batteries in the base of each light. The base twists off allowing you to access the batteries for replacement. There is also a switch on the base of the drivers side that allows you to turn the lights off when not in use to conserve battery life. When you see flashing on the drivers side light, this is an indicator telling you the batteries are low and need replaced.
view full answer... - How to Use the Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights on a 2022 Volkswagen ID.4It sounds like you are plugging the Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights # C6304 into the 4-way on your 2022 Volkswagen ID.4. There are some vehicles that do not sense the lights because they do not draw enough power. This would explain why everything works with your neighbors trailer connected. The trailer is pulling enough for your vehicle to sense it. The Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights # C6304 has a transmitting distance of 65'. The easiest way to correct this would be to connect the transmitter...
view full answer... - Will the Tekonsha T-One # 118461 Carry the Emergency Flasher Signal on a 2009 Subaru Outback WagonYes, the Tekonsha T-One # 118461 uses a standard 4-Way Flat connector which carries running lights, left brake/turn signal, right brake/turn signal, and the ground. The flasher signals would draw off both the left brake/turn signal and the right brake/turn signal. This is a confirmed fit for your 2009 Subaru Outback Wagon and I have attached an installation video for you to reference. If you don't already have lights I recommend the Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights # C6304. These don't connect...
view full answer... - How To Flat-Tow a 1996 Jeep Cherokee Using a Pickup TruckI do have an option for you but I am not aware of any way to flat-tow a vehicle using a front mount trailer hitch as there would be no way for the wheels to track properly. The most cost effective option we have for you to attach the Cherokee to your pickup is with the Curt Tow Bar with Adjustable-Width Arms part # C19745. If you don't have a steel bumper on your Jeep to attach this tow bar then you will need to remove the bumper and then attach this to the vehicle's core support. In...
view full answer... - Can a 1995 GMC C/K Series Pickup Be Towed Behind Another VehicleIt is possible to flat-tow a 1995 GMC C/K Series Pickup. However, you will need a lube pump if you have a C1500 or you will need to disconnect the drive shaft if you have a K1500 without manual transfer case. In order to flat-tow the vehicle you will need a tow bar like the Curt Tow Bar with Adjustable-Width Arms part # C19745 and a lighting kit like the Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights part # C6304 at the very least.
view full answer... - Will Magnetic Tow Lights Work through a Plastic Cover on a Steel Jeep BumperThe magnets on the tow lights like # C6304 are strong but I am not sure if they will work well enough with a plastic cover over the metal bumper of your Jeep. What I recommend is to go wit ha different type of kit, like # EZT20B that you could hook to the Jeep somewhere and not worry about magnets. Of you could secure some tow light partners, # TLP01, to provide a metal surface for the magnetic lights.
view full answer... - Tow Bar Wiring Recommendation for a 1999 Toyota 4RunnerThere aren't any confirmed tow bar wiring fits available for your 1999 Toyota 4Runner currently, but I did attach an FAQ article that details how to pick the best wiring kit for your application. If you were looking for an easily installed an removed kit I would go with a magnetic kit like Hopkins # C6304. Bulb and socket kits like the part # RM-155 could work as well as long as you have room for the bulb in your taillight housing. These kits install by drilling a hole in the taillight...
view full answer... - Magnetic Flat Towing Light Recommendation that are LED and have 4-Way Flat ConnectorThe bulbs of the Roadmaster Standard Magnetic Tow Lights # RM-2120 are incandescent, they are not LED. A better option would be the Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights # C6304. This kit uses LEDs and comes with a 4-way flat already. I attached a review video for you to check out as well.
view full answer... - What is the Battery Life for Hopkins Wireless Magnetic Tow LightsThe battery life for Hopkins wireless magnetic tow lights, # C6304, is going to depend on several factors including the charge level of the batteries used, quality of the batteries, ambient temperature, and of course how long the lights are turned on. It is difficult to estimate because of all of these factors. The safe bet is to check them with reasonable frequency. With that said the LED lights draw very little amperage so fresh batteries are likely going to last well over 2 hours. If...
view full answer... - Can Trailer Wiring and Tow Bar Wiring be Installed at Same Time on 2011 Honda CR-VThe trailer wiring harness you have installed with the Hopkins tow bar wiring harness part # HM56300 that you referenced is your issue. If you want the # HM56300 to be functional you'll need to remove the trailer wiring harness. Another option would be to leave the trailer wiring installed and use a temporary wiring kit for flat towing wiring like the part # C6304 which is magnetic and attaches to the top of the vehicle.
view full answer... - Solution for Magnetic Towing Lights on Ford Edge that Keep Falling OffI did see in the online version of the owner's manual for your 2018 Ford Edge that the front wheel drive model with the V6 engine can indeed be flat towed with all 4 wheels on the ground. When answering questions like this we always consult with the vehicle's owner's manual so it's likely that since the vehicle's release the manual has been updated to separate out the different engine types with regards to recreational towing. The Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights # C6304 that you referenced...

This custom harness is designed to fit earlier model Wranglers (up through the 2018 model year) and isn't compatible with the new generation. There isn't a similar custom plug-in harness available for your Jeep. If you'd rather not splice into the factory wiring on the vehicle (which I can certainly understand) another...
view full answer... - Can Hopkins Magnetic Light Kit part # C6304 Plug into Vehicle 7-WayYes you can plug the Hopkins Magnetic Light Kit part # C6304 into the 7-way of your RV but you'll need to use a 7-way to 4-way adapter like part # HM47365 as well.
view full answer... - Troubleshooting Magnetic Trailer Light Set OperationThe ground circuit for this type of lighting is all tied to the white ground wire. First step I recommend is using a Test Light # PTW2992 to verify that the issues is with the light string and not the vehicle's 4-way. Looking at your 4-way plug connector it looks like you have 2 wires switched. The green wire is for your right turn signal/brake light and the white wire is the ground which both are correct on the 4-way. The yellow wire is for the left turn signal/brake light and brown...

- Which Base Plates for 2009 Mini Cooper Are Compatible With Roadmaster Falcon Tow BarIn order to use your Roadmaster Falcon towbar, you'll need to use the Roadmaster Crossbar-Style Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms # 521878-1, which are a confirmed fit on the 2009 Mini Cooper. If you don't have a tow bar wiring/lighting solution for this vehicle yet, I recommend using the Hopkins Magnetic Tow Lights # C6304 , which are easy to install and can be reused if you end up switching dinghy vehicles at some point in the future. I've also linked all of our supplemental braking systems...
