I have these notes from when I installed a trailer light breakout box on a 2009 LX570. Might be useful?

Nice! Too bad no one thought to tell you to check that fuse… especially in the 3rd post30A Towing fuse is not the same as the 30 A Tow Tail fuse.
Could be wrong, but i think this has been gone over before. i believe the adapter is "designed" to connect back near the resonator on the USA driver's side, even though it can be clipped in at a block on the passenger side. But as you found, when clipped in on the passenger side, the wires do not match up.This thread saved me a bunch of time fixing my trailer running light issues thank you!
On top of the tow tail fuse being blown, I also managed to get a brand new lx570 specific hopkins adapter that had the batt+ and brake wires flipped, and non-functioning left hand turn.
My Dissent bumper had mounting brackets for the lights.This seemed to be the best thread to post this question...so here goes
I have built and tested my DIY pigtail wiring harness and everything works flawlessly. Thanks very much to @linuxgod for the schematic!
Butnow that it's time to actually install the lights I cannot figure out an intuitive way to mount them. Surely you guys aren't just wedging them in there. How do you secure them?
Did you order the light from Dissent when you ordered the bumper? My instructions say the blanks are replaced with the brackets if you order the combo lights.This seemed to be the best thread to post this question...so here goes

Thanks to both of you for replying. The lights were backordered when I ordered my bumper and I did not order them until they were available several months later so it sounds like I need to reach out to them for a bracket.Did you order the light from Dissent when you ordered the bumper?
