Re: where are the tailer light hook up??
You have to purchase the wiring harness and plug it into your truck.

Re: where are the tailer light hook up??
A search should come up with a bunch of info on this. On the 1998+ the factory plug in for a trailer harness is behind the left side plastic body panel in the rear cargo area. It's tucked behind the jack compartment. You have to yank the plastic panel out enough to find the plug/pigtale coiled & taped in there. Undo it & route it thru one of the holes in the jack compartment so you can get at it when you need it. Oh yeah.. like ramblin says, you have to buy a harness to plug into the factory plug.

Nice pics, Directory! These are worth a thousand words. On my '97 it's in the same location.

Re: where are the tailer light hook up??
The cheapest place I found them online was from Automotive Accessories Connection They are $25 + shipping. When I bought mine even the ones on ebay were $35-40. Just another option in case one cant be found on ebay cheaper.
