To solve the problem I bought a "converter" designed for a small utility trailer rig. NAPA # 755-1539. It is well labeled and coded and is made to adapt utility trailers to today's fancy taillights. Current taillights have a bulb and circuit for everything. But those utility trailers (I call my 4x8 a "Manly Trailer") have just the single bulb with 2 filaments. Cost was under $20. I too am concerned with visibility and will be driving my 444 here in Buffalo all winter long. My 444 has only the European lights on the body and nothing on the fenders. I will be installing some large oval vertical single bulb sealed lights in the next week or so. I might choose "marker" lights which are smaller but this winter will have Big back lights.
