Module 4: Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series Towing

The Clearview Next-Gen towing mirrors are suitable for all towing applications. They feature a large, flat, 1:1 top mirror which gives a narrower field of view, reflecting true distance for reversing. The convex bottom mirror provides a wider field of view to minimise blind spots while driving.

The Clearview Compact Towing Mirrors are designed to be a sleek, OEM-style mirror with enhanced towing visibility. These mirrors feature a large convex single mirror that offers a wide field of view, effectively reducing blind spots.They extend up to 180mm, providing three distinct towing positions, and retract to a factory-like profile when not in use.

The Redarc Tow Pro Elite V3 Electric Brake Controller is a premium, Australian designed and manufactured brake controller engineered for smooth and safe towing across diverse terrains. It features dual mode operation; automatic proportional mode for highway driving and user controlled mode for off road conditions. The unit supports both electric and electric/hydraulic trailer brakes, is compatible with 12V and 24V systems, and includes Active Calibration for seamless setup without requiring a trailer to be connected. Its discreet installation behind the dashboard maintains a factory look, with only a compact control knob visible. An OE style switch housing is used where available for a factory finish.

12 pin wiring configuration can vary greatly between caravans and we can accommodate most requirements. As a starting point we recommend the following configuration.

• Pins 1-7: Standard industry configuration, no variance
• Pin 8: Ignition isolated power supply (for fridge or other accessories)
• Pin 9: Ignition isolated signal wire (for fridge switch or other ignition signal requirement)
• Pin 10: Earth
• Pin 11: Blank
• Pin 12: Ignition isolated power supply (for ignition signal or low current draw accessories)

For higher current draw items, such as trailer mounted DC chargers, an Anderson Plug is required. Anderson plugs offer a more secure and higher current capacity than a 12 pin plug can accommodate.

Our standard grey Anderson plug provides an ignition isolated power supply rated to 50 amps, suitable for a charge feed to caravan batteries, or some DC chargers. This also includes an under bonnet mounting bracket for electrical components, and a vehicle specific tow bar bracket for mounting one or more Anderson plugs.

A second Anderson plug is sometimes required for a caravan’s Electronic Stability Control (ESC). For this we install a red Anderson plug which provides an ignition isolated power supply rated to 30A.
