• 4-Pole Wiring Extension for Peterson Tow Light Kit PE26UR
  If you want to add 10-feet of additional 4-pole wiring to the Peterson Magnetic Tow Lights # PE26UR you can simply use a 4-pole extension cable. This will avoid the need to cut and splice the lights' wiring harness. Hopkins offer 10-foot extension # HM48235 that will plug right in. I suggest you apply some dielectric grease like # 11755 to the connection point and secure the two mating connectors with a zip tie.

• Flat Towing 2015 Honda Fit EX-L Automatic Behind a Class A Motor Home
  When it comes to deciding if any given vehicle can safely be flat towed with all wheels down that determination goes to the vehicle's manufacturer. I reviewed the online version of the owner's manual for the 2015 Honda Fit EX-L and in the section titled Emergency Towing there is a statement on page 428 that says "...towing behind a motorhome or other motor vehicle can damage the transmission." No mention is made if this refers to all versions or only to versions with the automatic transmission....

• Lighting Options for Towing 2015 Honda Civic Si Behind Motorhome
  Neither Roadmaster nor Blue Ox offer a base plate kit for the 2015 Civic. Both companies tell me that the vehicle isn't flat towable, in which case you'd want to use a tow dolly like part # RM-2050-1. The tow dolly has taillights on it, for extra visibility the # RM-2120 tow lamp kit would work well for you.

• Recommended Removable Flat Tow Light Kit For 2016 Jeep Wrangler Soft Top
  I may have another option, but we do not carry the Custer Ez Mount EZT20B that use a mounting flap.

I included a picture of the lights used this way on a Jeep Wrangler for you to take a look at. This would be a great removeable option for your 2016 Jeep Wrangler with a soft top as it would still allow you to easily remove the lights...

• Where can I attach the Peterson Light Kit
  I went to the warehouse and pulled the Peterson Tow Light Kit, # PE26UR. It can be placed anywhere that there is metal. It attaches securely with a strong magnet. You can place it anywhere so that it can be seen from the back. A good place is the top of the towed vehicle. This kit will keep the tow vehicle and toad wiring separate, and provide stop turn and tail lights for towing your VW.

• Will SMI Delta Force Portable Braking System Work on 2019 Honda Fit
  Yes, the Blue Ox Patriot item # BLU37TR will work perfectly on your 2019 Honda Fit. You will also need the # RM-88400. Whether or not a system like this will actually activate the brake lights when pressing down on the pedal depends on the specific vehicle it's being used on (how the tail lights function when in the correct mode for towing). Based on my research though the brake lights for your 2019 Honda Fit should indeed still illuminate when the Patriot 3 applies the brakes. This...

• Only One Brake Light is Working with the Peterson Magnetic Tow Light Kit
  You will want to verify that both brake light signals are working at the RV side trailer connector. Unplug the Peterson Magnetic Tow Lights # PE26UR, and use a circuit tester such as # PTW2992 to test the pins on the 4-Way while someone sits in the RV and runs through the lighting functions. The most likely cause of this is a bad ground or dirt/corrosion in the trailer connector on the RV. It would take a very small wire brush or small screwdriver to clean on the 4-Way. This recently...

• Using Peterson Tow Light Kit, # PE26UR, with a Tow Dolly Already Connected to RV Trailer Connector
  The Roadmaster Tow Dolly with electric brakes, # RM-2050-1, also already has lights on it which is why they did not provide an additional socket for lights. It also has a 4-Way flat trailer connector with extra blue wire for the electric brakes and not a 7-Way. Since your RV has a 7-Way, what I recommend is to change the connector on the tow dolly to a 7-Way, # PK12706, and then you can use the Hopkins mutli-tow adapter, # HM47570. This connector will allow you to plug in the 4-Way on...
