How to get 12 Volt Power to a 7-Way on a 2003 Toyota Tacoma
Question:
Hi, Im not sure where to tie into the 12v power in the truck wiring. Im converting the OEM 4 prong to a 7 blade plug for a 2016 Little Guy T@G Max. Thanks.

If you already have your 4-way flat in place you can simply get your 12V power by running a wire to your battery through a circuit breaker. We have a kit pre made for this exact situation. What you can use is the 7-Way RV Upgrade Kit part # ETBC7.
This includes a 7-way adapter, circuit breaker and the wiring you'll need to get the job done. You can run the single wire to your battery and leave the rest, or fully install it should you need a brake controller in the future. I've included links to both and install videos we have done. Happy Hauling!
