Expert Reply:
What you are looking for is typically called "tow bar lighting" since it's what people install when they are flat towing a car so that they can control the lighting of the vehicle be towed.
For that we have the kit part # RM-154. If you install this kit on the vehicle you are towing you'd be able to use the 4-way of your tow vehicle to control the taillights of it.
