You need either a 7 pin to 6 pin or a 7 pin to 4 pin electrical cord to plug into the tail lights on the Yaris. You are getting either diodes or separate bulbs installed in the Yaris tail lights, right?
Kind of what I was asking. What else would I need?
And there is a Ready Brute cable that permanently attaches to the Yaris going from the brake pedal to the front of the car. That is what you attach the Ready Brute's surge brake to.
That cable should come with it, right? Like if you buy a ready brake by itself.
Also, I recommend the Ready Brute Breakaway brake. That is just another cable. The web site will have all the details.
They say the coiled safety cables come with it free. ($50 value)
And, while not NECESSARY, I really like the LED light installed in the MH dash that shows when the toad brakes are applied. It gives me confidence when going down steep grades that I am not burning out my car's brakes. However, I have it wired differently than they recommend. It is not wired to the Ready Brake. I installed a 12v relay on the car's 3rd brake light, and use that to activate my dash light. The dash light won't come on unless the car's brake pedal has been pulled enough to activate the car's brake lights.
Also free is a DL-300 monitoring system that mounts in the dash of the motorhome. That is what that is, correct?
Wondering how much it would cost to get the base plate, ready brake cabling and lights installed. There is a dealer about 30 minutes away that deals with Ready Brake. Might be worth a trip over there one day to talk with them about it. I do know that the base plate requires some modification to the front fascia.
