Trailer wiring to outside 94 XJ

Engine One Eight · Jun 22, 2007

I searched but did not find any tips. I'm hooking up a trailer wire kit behind the left panel. What's the trick way to get the wires from inside the body to the outside?

Thanks

If you look underneath on the lower inner quarter panel there should be a round plug where the OEM harness goes through.

Thanks, I found the plug, covered in 13 years of road grime. I have the harness through and can now legally pull the striper boat to the river with lights!

When I installed my trailer harness, everything connected to the left taillight from inside the cargo area, so I just coiled up the wiring and zip tied it together behind my spare tire.

When I have to tow something, I just run the wires out the tailgate and shut it.
Keeps the harness inside the vehicle till needed keeps the connectors clean. :eeks1:

X2, keeps the harness in good condition. Nothing like having your brake and rear lights stop working from a corroded harness.
