Hi all,
I have bought a camper shell for my old F-150 (gotta love Craigslist) and am going to have to run some wires to hook up the third brake light and dome light. At the same time, I'm thinking towards adding a trailer hitch, so I might as well do the wiring for the trailer plug at the same time. I know that a lot of trailers use a 4-way flat plug, but I also see 6 and 7 pin connectors, either one of which would be the same amount of effort to wire in (and I'll have all conductors available at the rear of the truck to wire either up, save for the brake controller wire, which I might as well just run at the same time as the third brake light wire "while I'm in there.") Question is, which is more common? I don't actually have a trailer, just want to have the option of pulling one if I have to.
thanks,
Nate
