M416 wiring...

[harm]

Whats up guys. I am new here and new to any military trailer, recently found a good deal on a M416 trailer in good shape. I really like the original tail lights and would like to keep them but wonder how I can wire them up to my 4 pin plug on my FJ Cruiser. Any information you guys can give me would be great.
My future plans for this trailer is to tear it down (which I started the other day) sandblast the tub and powder coat it. I would like to spray the inside with Line-X or something similar and swap the axle out for a 6x5.5 lug axle.
I want to build some sort of lid for it to add a roof top tent.
I think it would be a perfect addition while crossing rivers like this


Thanks for looking...

Just swap the bulbs for 12v and replace the plug to fit what you have..
There a few threads around here with details on the pin out but it's east to figure out..

Thanks Andy!
BTW, do you know where this "property plate" goes on the trailer?

Hey, to find out the harness refer to TM 9-2330-251-14.
For your 4 pin connector I advice you to change at least to a 7 pin connector to conform with some world wide standards and for your own safety.
After that changing to 12 V bulbes should be the easiest, but why, the the FJ Cruiser in Europe has a 24 V system..... And in Japan, too...

Since it doesn't have electric brakes, what purpose would a 7 pin over a 4 pin serve ?

The "property plate" should be on the frame, forward of the fender, on the curb side. As per the diagram in the -14
