It really just depends on what the wires are for. Most likely you have several ground wires among the 8 as well as a couple running light circuits in there as well. You just have to run all of the wires to the correct circuits.
The 4-way wiring of the part # 16-4B-1 has a white wire for ground, a brown for running lights, yellow for left turn/stop, and green for right turn stop. You would just need to identify all of the wires on your trailer and run them accordingly.
