Question:
Hello. I would like to install two of these tail lights on my 2005, Newmar Kountry Star. On this vehicle, the running and brake lights are in one red light, and the turn signal is a separate amber light. How would I wire this light with my setup? Thank you for your assistance. Best regards, Tony

Hey Tony! The Thinline LED Trailer Tail Light # STL64RB is designed for a 2-wire system found on a trailer. To install these on your motorhome you will also need the Roadmaster Brite-Lite 3-to-2 Tail Light Converter for Towed Vehicles # RM-732. This will combine your brake/turn signal so you will connect the red wire on the lights to the green on the right and the yellow on the left coming out of the converter.
Any big trips coming up with your motorhome?
