It won't make a difference if it is specific or not. If it is wired correctly it just takes longer than the plug and play.

Did you check the voltage at the lights? And verify you have a flasher capable of handling the extra bulbs?

Sure does.

But there is still no difference between a plug in unit or a universal converter. The end result is the same.

Most U-Hauls have the converters on the shelf since their rental trailers need to work with whatever people drive up in.

I've had one for 10 years +. Still working.
