Trailer Plug

It seems that the trailer plugs for the 2.5 ton, 5 ton, M38, and others use the same 12 pin plug. There are 10 wires installed and 2 pins that are installed but the rubber insulator is not drilled for them.
Does any know of a 12 pin plug like this that actually uses all 12 pins or at least has the capability of.
I have rewired about 60% of my M35A2 starting in the rear and I have added 4 circuits for my 105 trailer but I can't use all 12 pins.
I do not want to eliminate the Blackout Brake and Tail in case I want the trailer to look and function all the way around. One of the circuits is adding MRAP reverse lights to the truck and trailer both.
I have not opened up or removed the rubber insulator from the plug yet. I guess in theory since the pins are there they probably could be used with some extra work.
Thoughts?
Suggestions?
Thank you,

Below is a link for information only. Perhaps the military has the vendor plug two holes with a sealant. The same part number plug here has all holes drilled in the rubber insulator and of course all 12 pins are installed.
Guess I will pull mine apart and see if the holes are drilled and sealed or if they are not drilled at all.
