Default What do you know about trailers?

I bought a "new" 6x4 trailer.

It's in horrible condition but was fairly cheap compared to most others online for sale.

Dude has Toyota Corona tail lights on the rear bolted on... The wires from the lights at the rear to trailer connector are all screwed. It's a circle plug. I see a red wire cut and poking out of the back of the cable cover thing...

I wish to remove the Toyota trailer lights and fit some basic supercheap lights. I'll buy a new set of wires, a harness thing with a flat connector to fit the Fairmont.

Is the wiring for the trailer lights as simple as splicing the new flat connector wire harness thing to the new light sockets?

Not sure how the wire harnesses work but it seems like one end has the plug, and the other end is just bare wires, is that right? So I just splice them into the new tail lamps and off I go? (No fuses or other bs I must worry about?)

Going down to bunnings today to take a look... Not seen the harnesses in person yet, no idea what I'll end up with.
