Default M715 Blackout stop light and trailer plug

Does anyone have a close up pic of the single small blackout stop light on the pass. side of the rear of a M715? also is the trailer plug the same on most MV's? I got a small single blackout stop light and trailer plug off a scapped ammo trailer (free ). I think the trailer plug will work but from the pics I've seen I cant tell if the light is the same.

Trailer plug is the same and the BO stop should be too, there was only one version of this lamp for BO stop. The wire plugs directly into the lamp.

The one picture I saw (on m715zone) looked like it had 4 bolts holding it onto the rear bumper/cross member. the light I have is bullet shaped and has the mounting hole on the bottom. If anyone has a close up pic I'd like to see it.

I posted here rather than the zone because this site is way more active than over there. thought I might get a quiker response

You are missing the little L shaped bracket that holds the lamp to the rear bumper. You can fab one, there is not much to it.

The 12 pole trailer receptical is a NATO standard part. The black out brake light also. As said befor the necessary clamp you easily can make youself.

The bracket is just bent steel. Here is a stock bracket and a piece of 12 gauge I bent next to each other. Along with a picture of the set up on the truck.
