Actually P/I^2
I believe the series III Discos are worse. They chuck a hissy fit if you connect a trailer with leds. I think they shut down until you send an autosparkie to Mumbai.

I used a relay box for my trailer lights wiring... Current draw from the signal connection to the cluster is too little for the canbus to notice either way.
This is not possible on more modern cars though that rely on the canbus knowing a trailer is there for disabling reverse sensors and enabling special calibrations for stability systems...
Can you just install the resistors on the trailer itself?

No idea. I would probably keep the trailer and scrap the Alfa.

It is bloody nice to drive though... Also, won’t ever tow with the Alfa - twin dry clutch transmission.
Megane is a conventional torque converter job, but lights connection is mostly for the bike rack

Turn the gearbox around (and flip it upside down) and put an engine in the middle!
We did it for an off road buggy.

in a type 3 or are you talking beetle
Off road racing buggy, just a pipe framework. About 450mm of suspension travel at the back and maybe 350 at the front. Datsun twin cam bored to just under 1.5L, can't remember the engine code but it was a 1200 to start with, was a loooong time ago. Twin 45 DCOE Webers, idled at about 2,500rpm and revved happily to 12,000. No restraints on fitting, just weld in brackets where they needed to go. Pod mounted radiators and oil cooler with thermo fans. No pics unfortunately, lost in the hundred moves I have done since. Did a couple of Goondiwindi and other races.
Very cool, wouldn't mind seeing the finished project, goodluck with it, not enough utes anymore.

Hurts. Requires Money. And is nerdy.
