Pre-'10 facelift, you can just splice into the tail light wiring.
Hi guys,
I FINALLY got around to putting a tow ball on the van (pig of a job, who ever invented the plastic push lugs owes me an hour of my life back!) and now i just need to organise a plug. I was told its not that simple on these vans, is that true? All I need is brake lights and indicators for when I pick up scaffolds etc on trailer. The van has zero fancy features like reversing sensors etc so is there a loom point I can splice into or a factory plug hidden I am unaware of?
Any help would be really appreciated.

Just probe the back of the light connector with a testlight to get the wires you need.
You'll need to run a wire over to the right-hand side for the right side blinker.

If I remember right you can tap into the drivers side indicator harness at the very top where the harness comes out of the rear pillar on the drivers side .
