There is a 24-12V 4 to 3 wire converter that works perfectly. (you have to supply 12 v power from your own source) I have some 12V magnetic trailer lights permanently connected to my 24V BJ70 and they've been running since last summer. Add a standard brake controller and you'll be set. I have no idea who makes the units, I got mine surplus. I believe Crushers has some in stock.
I've done it for the lights... the bundle of wires and relays is still sitting on my bench if you want to have a look at it....
helluva lot cheaper than the 24/12 converter thing.

I was planning on wiring up a set of magnetic 24 volt trailer lights - the kind you get from u-haul. That way I could tow any trailer and not have to worry about the 12 - 24 thing. The 12 volts sets are about $45 bucks new so I figure I should be able to wire up mine for close to the same price.
too tal have you done anything about a seven wire plug setup yet?
Sent you a pm regarding these items.
I alway have a few spares of 24V bulbs in my truck. At most on any trailer it is just a few screws to put in the 24V bulbs. Eventually, I may do the converter thing but for the amount of trailering I do with different trailers, it isn't worth it right now. My utility trailer is already 24V.
I did the 24 to 12 converter thing because I was pulling trailer with 12 volt brakes and a 12 volt coach battery and I still had to run 24 volt bulbs as those systems werent' converted. I wasn't cheap!
Not to mention, there is a 5 to 4 wire converter as well as the 7 wire outlet. Needless to say, I have some cleanup to do but I'm not looking forward to it.

what the fxxx is this suppose to mean?? pissing contest?!?!?
the original price of $200 was for a setup from Britian the second of $50 was source locally.
grab a chill pill.
the first batch of units source is $50 PLUS SHIPPING, the next batch will probably be $75 PLUS SHIPPING.
now, i have been stiffed twice on orders recently. be forwarned. if you order these units and do not send a cheque i will be posting up your name, email address and handle anywhere i can as a warning to anyone you might do business with.
i am giving the blokes a change to come good first.
if you are a dead beat then don't order one, simple as that.
