You will need to use a basic 4 pole trailer connector, like part # 18252. Part # 18252 includes a basic circuit tester that you will need to use to identify wires in the trunk of your Royale.
You will need to pull the carpeting back from the trunk area. Use the circuit tester to find the wires that you need to splice into. The white wire on the harness needs to be connected to a good ground. The brown is for running lights. The yellow is for left blinker and turn and the green is for right blinker and turn. On your vehicle the brake and turn signals for each side are combined on the same wire.
I have added a link to a couple of videos and help pages that you may find useful. I found video of a wiring install on a 1996 Chevy Lumina. Not the same vehicle, but it is the same idea.
