Where is the best place to wire in for trailer lights. Also what side (pass/drvr). Do you need to drill any holes thru the floor?

Thanks,
Brett
 
Take off the left rear cover panel behind the spare tire and connect your wires there. I brought my wires out of the inside lower rear quarter panel near the rear spring shackle. There is a large plastic body hole plug there and you can just drill a hole in the plastic. The XJs have to use a tail and brake light combiner module since they have seperate turn lights and brake lights where the trailer has one light for both. You may have a trailer supply place in Orem where they have what you need, or go up to Salt Lake and visit Henderson Wheel. The trailer places also sell in-line connectors so that you don't have to splice in to the wires. If you don't want to buy a combiner there is a very easy way to make the turn light act as a combined brake and turn by adding one wire to your steering column connector.
