Connecting wiring to small trailer

I have a Class I trailer hitch on my 2008 LB, which I have used for a two bicycle carrier. I need to pull a very light weight trailer to haul
six bikes. Total weight is less than 300lbs (tongue weight about 30lbs)
I need to connect Yaris wiring to trailer.
Which type of trailer wiring rig do I need?
There seem to be three options.
1) directly tap into the rear light wire loom for each trailer light
2) use a trailer converter module which gets its 12VDC from the rear wires
3) use a trailer converter module which has to have a new 12VDC power
wire run up to the battery

I don't want to damage any auto-electronics...
