Question:
I flat tow a 2001 Jeep Cherokee and currently use magnetic tail lights for the Jeep while I’m towing. I would like a wiring kit so I can just plug in the Jeep to the rv and use the Jeep lights instead of the magnetic ones. If a plug and play kit exists I would prefer that instead of having to cut and splice several wires

There is a tow bar wiring kit for your 2001 Jeep Cherokee, though it does require splicing as there isn't a plug-in kit for an '01 Cherokee. The best option for this is a kit from Roadmaster:
- Roadmaster 4-Diode Universal Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles - 7-Wire to 6-Wire Straight Cord # RM-152-98146-7
The # RM-152-98146-7 is a diode kit which is the best way to wire a flat towed vehicle because it prevents any type of feedback, which keeps your Cherokee's electrical system safe and sound. This kit includes the wiring as well as the 7-way to 6-way adapter to plug right in between your Jeep and motorhome.
