Need a Spot
Just installed a trailer hitch on my '01 Rodeo V6 and need to know where to plug in the pigtail for trailer lights/brakes. I saw one that stopped and was mounted on the frame beam on drivers side....was that it? Thanks for any clarification on this.

You didn't pull the cover off and look?

Should correspond with your trailer plug-in, ie 3 male pins and one female pin for the ground, unless it's a 7-pin harness.

The stock ones on my Toyotas are frame-mounted, but on the rear beam.

Follow the harness up and forward; you should come to some kind of a converter box if it isn't mounted too high.

Here's what the kit looks like for aftermarket install:

Also check your fuse block to see if you have a 'tow' fuse or not. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Yes, that one will work if you want to pull BOTH tail lites out to piggyback off of. The location is in the wiring harness above the bottle jack...you have to find the connector and pull to release it from harness.
