Running lights when parked.

Where do I find the description for wiring the running lights to work when parked at the campsite at night. I know it has been shown before but I am having no luck finding it.

I set mine up so they flash to the beat of my out side speakers! looks and sounds cool. I also have just the fuse to run the lights at night, and a flasher if I ever have a problem on the side of the road at night, or for Halloween and the scary music!

Why? Doesn't everyone love the carnival atmosphere?
Do you want the CG dark and quiet? :W


Add a liberal dose of campfire smoke, some loud music and your favorite alcohol and you've gotta partay that will attract the entire CG... :C

I patched in to the 12V wiring harness termination on the trailer.

I ran wires into the trailer interior and added a nice interior 12V switch to operate the trailer lights when and if I need to.

Well that's easy, get out your fishing rod, tie the line to her toe and when she's done at the shower you can reel her back in.

I like the carnival atmosphere at the carnival.
I do want the campground dark and quiet. Quiet for all the obvious reasons and dark to enhance the starry night sky.

The flasher is good when you order a pizza delivered.

If you really want to WOW everyone then use a regular TWO PRONG FLASHER module in place of the fuse in above description. Then all of your running lights will FLASH...


This will really get your neighbor campers mad at you... They might even throw rotten eggs...
