hey if my truck does'nt have the turn signal/brake light connectors by the tow hitch, is it easy to get setup?

I gotta tow a uhaul this weekend 6x12 and I'm lost about this turn signal connector stuff

 

The U-Haul boys will set you up for about a half-yard of cash.

 

If you wanted to buy one, it would be less than $20 and take probably 5 minutes to install. Then you would always have one.

It just plugs in where the right and left light units meet at the rear of the truck.

I just got a UHail class III hitch today. The entire setup set me back $250, including labor. What really gets me though is where the UHaul mechanic mounted the electrical connector. Previously, it mounted unobstrusively and out of the way under the truck. But apparently, UHaul's hitch interferes with that position, and the connector is mounted just under the rear bumper itself! It's an absolute eyesore. It sticks out like a sore thumb. I left the truck to be worked on, and returned after the mechanic had left, so I couldn't get him to change the location. There's gotta be some other, out-of-the-way place that thing can mount... It sucks...

On top of that, I realized too late that I could've done the work myself. I went with UHaul because I assumed I had to splice the electrical wires to set up the connections and I felt a bit uncomfortable with that. But my model ('01 F150 HDS) already comes with all the electrical connections set up, and all I needed was a $12 adaptor. So basically, I could've purchased the Hidden Hitch, bolt it on, and then be ready to go for under half what I had spent... Ah well...
