2011 VW Touareg 5-Way Trailer Wiring Recommendation
Question:
I bought a 2011 VW Touareg and it has a trailer hitch. I think it is from the factory. I have a trailer and need the plug to connect it. My preference is really a 5 flat wiring in the event that I trailer a boat with brakes. Any HELP you can give would be appreciated. Any of my boat customers that drive a GM product and have a 7 round plug on their vehicles can buy a 7 to 5 plug and it works. With the VW Touareg, I can confused. HELP...

It sounds like your 2011 Volkswagen Touareg doesn't have any trailer wiring and you are looking for the correct part to install a 5-way on it.
We have exactly what you need. You would want the Tow Ready Wiring Harness part # 119177KIT. This comes with everything needed to install a fully functional 5-way trailer harness on your vehicle. You can also plug a 4-way into this 5-way. I attached a set of installation instructions for you to check out as well.
