Unless your trailer is wired for separate brake/turn-signal (most are not), you will need an adapter device 'cause I'm guessing your car does have them separate. The devices is probably just a couple diodes, but I haven't really looked into it. That and some 14 or 16 AWG wire, some heatshrink tubing, and a soldering iron and you could be wired in an hour. If you stuff a bunch of grease into the tubing before assembly and shrinking, you get a quite waterproof joint. Did that on a trailer about 15 years ago. Though its been stored outside for the whole time, the wiring is still fine. -- Philip _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
