Sunday after the over-a-decade old original wiring on my EZ loader trailer eventually gave out I pulled out all the old wiring and replaced it with brand new wire I'd gotten with some Wesbar LEDs I'd previously installed. I had previously replaced the tail lights with the Wesbars but had been too busy/lazy at the time to go ahead and rewire everything. Only the back two new lights had been working before those eventually went out so on Sunday I went ahead and added a new 3 bar LED light strip to the back while doing the rewiring. The tail lights and the three light strip are working perfectly and I was happy.
Then today I decided I'd like to remove the old incandescent side marker lights that originally came with the boat but weren't working and replace them with amber LED side marker lights. They are installed now on the front, single tube part of the trailer. The two new wires I installed Sunday run from the front all the way back to the rear lights on each side and I have zero excess wire to play with. I was worried when installing the new wire that I'd have enough and it was just barely that.
What I need are suggestions on how to connect the new side marker light's brown wire to the brown wire or wires running the length of the trailer. Is there a way to tap into the wire? Is there another way?
