Either side, but you will need to run one wire over to the opposite side. You should not have to remove all of the plastics. You can open the hatches for access to the lights and then feed the wires down into the spare tire area. For exiting the car, the rubber plug at the bottom of the spare tire well is better than drilling a hole through metal.

That does look good. It is quite low though, so you will have to be careful to not scrape your carrier.

Does just the right turn signal not work, or do none of the functions work on the right side?

the tail light in the car work, but in the curt wire dont
CTScott

I figured that was the case, but through the curt, does everything except turn signal work on the right or does nothing work on the right?

OK. From the pictures of the right side connector I can't tell which blue lines up with which wire on the top of the connector, but the darker blue (called sky blue) wire is the right turn signal wire.
Eduardo_mty
11-23-2014, 09:58 PM
ok, i do you mean, that i will change the tap to the dark blue wire
CTScott
11-23-2014, 10:08 PM
Actually I was remembering the blue colors wrong. The lighter blue is "sky blue". So, you want to connect to that wire or to the wire that it connects to on the other side of the connector.

OK. So you are on the correct wire. Make sure your tap splice is actually making contact through the insulation.

Try switching the left and right input wires on the curt and see if the problem stays on the right. If it does then the curt unit is the problem.

With the correct words
"I recently purchased a Curt trailer light converter from you. After installing the unit I found that the right side turn signal does not work. I switched the right and left turn signal wires to the Curt converter and the problem remained on the right side, so the unit is definitely bad."
