Those LED's must not be very bright. 13V x .03A= .39W
Maybe you meant 300ma?

Hi folks,
Dave posted my trailer wiring for the Chevy Bolt and the Tesla Y (I assume
other Tesla tail light access is similar)
On www.EVDL.org/lib/mh. I accessed the #24 tiny wiring on the left tail light of my Tesla Y by pealing back the rubber and left trunk side snap
panel, then pulling off the LED light connector to access the brake lights, left turn , running nighttime lights and GND return. I cut the wires and lengthened them while tapping off with #22 wire soldered and heat shrink back, used multi conductor wire with sheath routed inside the spare tire channel to the hitch area where I added 4 mixing diodes. The right tail light was just a Single tap on the red wire for right signal. Don’t forget to change your trailer lights to LED so you don’t get a nasty surprise when you hook up the 4 pin flat connector. I bought
the trailer hitch from etrailer.com specifically for the Y and fit great but not a peep on how to wire the lights. Same thing with the Chevy Bolt
but had to dig into the upper hatch wiring harness to access the wiring, a bit more difficult. My trailer light current is about 30ma instead of 4A for turn/brakes.
Have a renewable energy day
Mark
