Reciever Hitch, but what about adaptor plug
I've been wanting to install a reciever on my 04 taco and I was about to buy one but then I realized that I also need that electrical adaptor plug for trailor lights.....I dont really need one for trailor brakes because I dont plan on towing anything that big but every now and then I have to tow a small U-Haul with a 800lbs or so in it....where would I get one of those adaptors and how do I install it....THANKS!

Most of the UHAUL places will carry these adaptors. All you need to do is to tap into one of your rear lights. It takes about 15 minutes to hook it up.

I bought my wiring harness from an RV Store for my 2000 Tunrda.
