Re: pigtail for tow trailer??
You haven't said which model you have, but if a TJ, the basic 4 wire
connector is all you will need. It comes with relatively simple
instructions. If your tow vehicle is one where the turn signals are a
different bulb than the brake lights, then you will need an adaptor thingie.
The lighting adaptor is available at Kragen, Auto Zone, Checker, Pep Boys,
etc. Some stores may be out of stock, but the device you need is very
common.

Re: pigtail for tow trailer??
Hello Bill,
I was hoping avoiding splicing into my tail lights. Since the tail
light assembly plugs into the harness I thought an adaptor on each
side would keep me from having to splice. No biggee. It just would
have been nice to have the wires "T" off to a new pigtail.
