I am installing a wireless rear camera system to my little guy 5 wide 2012 model

The system is wireless blue tooth I think, but the rear camera needs 12 volt power.  The instructions recommend patching into a side marker light.  Instructions say just pop off the side marker light cover to get to the wiring.  I just looked and attempted to pop off the cover.  But no luck.  Looks like the entire light does not pop out or I may have not done the proper technique to get the cover off.  I do not want to damage the cover by application of too much force.  Has any one got into the side marker light unit and can help me out ?

Appreciate any help.

@davidreidok I do not know if you could reach it from inside at all.  I know to get the BACK tail light out, you pull the black rubber out.  It's a tight fit so it won't leak.  But I never tried the side lights.  I'm guessing it would not be an easy reach going in that way, if at all.

I think the side marker lights are glued on and I did not find any access from the inside

I did try the tail lights and as wildcat posted, after pulling the rubber covers loose the fit was so tight I was afraid of tearing up something and stopped.  There appears to be trailer wires in the back of the trailer from inside, but I cannot reach back there to access them.

I did find out that nucamp built the early model little guy trailers and have a email into them asking for help.   Current little guy customer service told me that NuCamp built the older model little guy trailers (little guy just sold them) but little guy and nucamp broke up a few years back.

Right now have ordered a gizmo from Amazon to hook up to the rear hatch cigar lighter outlet for power. Will check to see if the 7 way tow vehicle powers this outlet when I am hooked up to tow.

Bottom line I found a 2012 little guy 5 wide in great shape so NuCamp built a solid product that lasts.

Finding out information to do add ons to the NuCamp produced trailers is not easy but hopefully the NuCamp support service has answers.
