This is a known HiLux problem and the basis for a recall. I think they fit a higher voltage flasher unit as the stock one's not powerful enough to run trailer lights too.

last time i checked the park lights and the indicators were on a different circuit all together the recall is for the hazzard light not working with a trailer on and a bullbar draws to much current
