What Lighting Requirements Are Needed When Dolly towing a 2013 Acura TL?
Question:
Will be towing my 2013 Acura TL front wheel drive only on a dolly. What do I need and how do I hook up to my MHs 7 way connector to the Acuras turn and brake lights? Sorry, but Im a newbie and cant find anything online about this.

Expert Reply:
I recommend first checking with the local laws where you will be towing your 2013 Acura TL. The tail lights on a Tow Dolly # DM9713045 are often the only lights which are required. If this is the case you will only need an Adapter # 337TC2074P to go from the 7-way on the motorhome to the 4-way flat on the trailer.
If you require additional lighting I recommend adding the Magnetic LED Tow Light Kit # TLL21RK. This is a great option as you do not have to wire anything with your lights. And if you ever need to tow a different vehicle you can easily move them.
