I'll second Phil's comment!  I took his advice a couple of weeks ago when I
put mine up.  I varied slightly from him.  They make six pin trailer plugs
as well.  So I used a six pin and a 4 pin just so that I wouldn't get them
confused.

But he's right - they are waterproof, easy to use and work great!

Thanks for the tip, Phil!
