    on my 51 3100 I have been working on the wiring. I've got two sets of wires for the rear lights: one set for the taillights and the other for bed roll lights.

    I've got four wires coming from the front that connect to both the left and right rear lights.

    My question is what's the best way to connect all these wires?

    I'd like to have the wires be easily disconnected if say a repair was needed.

    Appreciate the suggestions and help,

    I used a 4 wire trailer plug on mine. Ground, left turn and brake, right turn and brake, running and license plate lights.

    I bought some weatherpak knockoffs on ebay

    Allows me to take off the light as a unit if it needs servicing
