kyle Posted August 11, 2010 Share #1 Posted August 11, 2010 I finally got my new to me trailer "thanks roadkill" wired up tonite and i'll say it was real easy. However when i started reading howto's by other members i thought it would be difficult. Some of ya made it way to complicated and intimidating but after a while i said screw it and did it this way... bought a "CALTERM" # 08079 tailight converter 5 wire to 4 wire spliced them in under the seat by the battery and wala i got lights. the beauty of the calterm is the converter is in the plug in where the the trailer plug goes so you don't need to get all fancy with splices and sh%& like that. so easy a caveman could do it....... "me" oh ya only $13.99 !!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilvrT Posted August 11, 2010 Share #2 Posted August 11, 2010 I completely rewired my "rebuild" trailer ... used a 5 wire connector to the bike and ran that to the loom adjacent the battery. Must have 14 different colors of wires but they all work LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
