Just a word of caution on "NATO" plug wiring and trailers.


There is a clash between North American and (you knew it was coming) British NATO connections.

You might wonder what I'm jabbering on about but let me explain. There is a presumption that all NATO kit is inter operable.

We found to our cost over the years when trying to connect a British prime mover ie Land Rover or Bedford to M series trailers that things go squirly.

The reason is that the British stuff uses a separate bulb for the turn signal but the North American uses the brake light.

Just in case anyone has aspirations of towing things
