If you want to install a new 4-way connector on your utility trailer I recommend using something like part # A35W42B. This is a 35 ft 4-way wiring harness. I have attached a link to a helpful article that explains trailer wiring you can check out.

For trailer lights I recommend using LED lights. they are very durable and raw much less power than incandescent lighting.

For the right hand side of the trailer I recommend a light like part # STL8RB. This is an 11 diode light that features the stop, turn, and tail light. This light measures 5-1/4 inches long and 5 inches wide and is a surface mount. For the left hand you would order part # STL9RB.

The side marker lights I recommend are part # AL82AB. these are mini-rectangular LED clearance lights and are amber colored.
