Got the Toad now I need bars and plates
We finally bought a 4 down toad. Been looking for the right one for months and we bought it yesterday. It's a 2011 CRV EX FWD. So now it's time to sell the dolly and buy some bars. Pretty much made up...

So if I have the ready brute elite with the built in ready brake, won't the brake lights work when activated? And if so I and I get the roadmaster 155 wiring for the brake lights and signals won't I have double brake lights? Nothing wrong with that I suppose but seems redundant, all I really would need it turn signals.
Turn signals and tail lights...
Yes, I'll have the stock brake lights from the ready brake activation and brake lights from the roadmaster 155.
It is true I'll have the turn signals from the 155 but I will also have 2 sources of brake lights. The stock toad brake lights and the 155 supplemental brake lights. That's what I meant. 2 brake lights and one source of turn signals.
I'm not sure about the vehicle that you plan to use but on my Chevy HHR, the stock brake lights DO NOT work when the vehicle is being towed. When the ginition is turned off, it also kills the brake lights. ON my vehicle you have to remove a fuse so that the key can remain in the acc position, but ALL electric is turned off so that the digital odometer does not register miles towed.
What they did on my HHR was to drill holes in the factory lights and install ADDITIONAL light bulbs that are powered by my RV when we are traveling. This gives me running lights, turn signals, and brake lights, just like a trailer. My stock brake lights do nothing since the power is off to them while towing.
