Expert Reply:
A great place to start with for wiring up a trailer is the 7-way upgrade kit part # HS381-9000 which gives you a junction box and wiring from it to the front of the trailer for the connector.
From there it would be a matter of running wires to each of the lighting circuits from the box to the trailer lights/brakes etc. For that we have 12 gauge wire like part # 12-1-1 sold by the foot for the lighting functions and then 10 gauge wire like part # 10-1-1 for the ground circuit and the brake output circuit circuit.
