Does anybody have one installed so I can see if I can keep my Center Exhaust?

You can get it online for $150. If you go to your local UHaul dealer you can possibly get it for equal or less. There is a bit of a markup on it.

Here's my mini trailer. I'll be updating it quite a bit once I get some time.

i used a 4 prong plug that comes down underneath on the left side. i got a long drill bit and drilled a hole thru the panel inside by the tail lite wires and ran 1 more wire to the right side for the right turn signal, inside taped down under the rear carpet .
their all ty wrapped to the hitch to the center area. nice, tight and clean install.
