Chris and I are the only two with D2s. I don't know how to do it. Greg Davis suggests doing it for people who buy his rear bumpers, you might want to ask him. gregandjan@hotmail.com --Craig

All you need is to get a trailer box that converts independant turn/brake signals into common bulb, so that your turn signals and brake lights come from the same light. I forget the part number but draw tite makes the box for like $15. Also Safari Gard has the instructions on their website for the same procedure.�

Thanks for the welcome Andy. I will look around my house because I should have the wiring listed for the turn signals and the brake lights so you know which wires to connect. I also have the reciept from the trailer place for the wiring box so i can tell you exactly which one. Let me look around and see if i can find that stuff for you.� Nick

*DSII Rear Light Wiring Codes* Right Side Brake=Green w/ Purple Stripe Left Side Brake=Green w/ Purple Stripe Right Side Indicator=Green w/ White Stripe Left Side Indicator= Green w/ Red Stripe Right Side Tail Light= Red w/ Orange Stripe Left Side Tail Light=Red w/ Black Stripe Reverse Lamps=Green w/ Natural (Tan?) Stripe This is the converter, i think it is less than $20 Drawtite (P/N 18130) Hope this helps. Also you might want to double check the wires with a wire tester just to double check and make sure they are the same on your truck.�
