I just went through this with a vehicle I purchased - the route I went - I found a dual plug for the vehicle (at wal-mart) that had both a 4 pin outlet and a 7 pin outlet. When you put it on the vehicle, the old 4 pin plug plugs into the 7 pin unit and there are pigtails for trailer brake and aux power on the plug for the vehicle. The 4 pin side gives you ground, left and right turn (and therefore brake lights) and tail lights. For brakes, you have to add a controller and wire it to the 7 pin plug. And you have to also pull a wire back for the aux power if you want that. This way I can hook to a small trailer without brakes, or my bigger trailers with brakes (I have a controller) and don't have to try to remember where I put the adapter. As mentioned in a previous post - get the standard wireing diagram from the net since the one provided with the kit may or may not be correct. Bob
