Has anyone figured out a way to hook their military trailer to their civvy wiring? I need to haul my trailer behind my Dodge and I would like for the brake and turn lights to work. Any ideas?

SS; You did'nt say if it was temporary or not. What I did was buy one of those towing light kits ($34.00 on ebay). Thats the ones with the magnetic bases. It came with its own funky plug style, but I just converted it to 4pin. Its pretty cheap, really easy, and you can use it on all the others toys your planning on buying down the road<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_wink.gif" alt="Wink">

da_sgt, yep it is temporary, but like you said I could use it on other toys. I should just pick one of those up at Advance Auto.

Also, does anyone have a military socket off an old truck laying around? I could just use that and some wire to make an adapter that I could take anywhere for anything.

I have got a few from M1008's 9's etc laying around. If this will work. If you would pay the ride, you can have it. Let me know.
Thanks MD40, I'll take you up on that. Just let me know what it will cost to ship to 25314 and I'll send it out to you.<img src="emoticons/icon_smile_cool.gif" alt="Cool">
