"Electric brakes are not approved in the EC, we have already looked
into that one."

Those mechanical brakes, outlawed for years in the Colonies, should be ok.  
I mean, the earth is flat...   The Oz electric discs would be da bomb, but they are out, too.
We haven't seen mechanically-linked brakes since the Ford Model A.  Seriously, I cannot 
conceive of a system more likely to NOT work than what you must contrive.  This is a long 
way of saying "dunno how much help we on the other side of pond can be, given we have no 
experience with such kit".

What would be on a new, factory built trailer of similar specification?  Can that system 
be purchased as a kit?
