Expert Reply:
The only parts you need is the wiring, butt connectors # 05732-2, and ring terminals # DW05705-1.
The wires coming from the brakes do not have polarity so either can be used as the ground or power wires. Depending on how you have the brakes grounded you can run individual wires using # 10-1-1. We also have 2 wires jacketed together, part # 10-2-1. This may be an easier solution. Both are sold by the foot.
