Tail Lights

This weekend I wired up the exterior lights on my 1962 Tradewind. It took a little work to figure out where all of the wires went to. I found that there were separate wires to the brake lights, and turn signals. While the 7-pin connector at the truck has the brake and turn signal lights on combined pins (RH turn and stop, and LH turn and stop). So I attached the turn signal lights on the trailer to the appropriate pins on the 7-pin, and left the trailer brake light wire unattached. Everything seems to work OK in that arrangement. However, I’m wondering if I should be using a different bulb or tail-light socket with that arrangement, instead of the original 1962 Bargeman-99 socket and bulb.



Has anyone else looked at this?
