Your 4106 is 12 volt. I can't remember if the 4106 has separate turn signals or if they are combined with the brake lights (sharing the same filament). If they are combined with the brake lights, just tap into the wires at the back of the bus for the 2 turn signal (which will also be your brakes), the tail lights, and ground.
If your brake lights are separate, you will have to buy a adapter (available at any auto parts store or WalMart) to combine the bus brake lights and turn signal.
Another option if your bus has separate brake and turn lights is to install additional lights on the trailer, so the trailer has separate brake and turn signal lights. This will require at least a 5 wire plug (left turn, right turn, brake, tail, and ground).
If you lights are dim after adding the trailer light or it trips the circuit breaker, you may need to install relays and power the trailer lights directly off your batteries through the relays using the existing lights to control the relays.
Hope this helps, Jack
