Question:
I am considering buying 2 of these to use on a hitch mount bike rack. I would like to have brake lights, running lights, and left/right blinker. My truck has the 4 pin and 7 pin plug in for trailer lights. Which trailer wire kit would you recommend?

Expert Reply:
In order to create a wiring harness for the two Thinline LED Trailer Tail Lights part # STL59RB I recommend using the Wesbar 4-Pole Flat Connector part # W787264 along with the Deka Heat Shrink Butt Connectors part # DW05744-5. The white wire on each light as well as the trailer connector will need to be run to a bare metal surface. The black wire for each light can be combined and run to the brown wire on the trailer connector. The red wire for each light can then be run to the yellow for left and right for green wires on the trailer connector.
