Yes we do!
I recommend going with the 4 Pole Trailer Connector # C59496. Essentially all you will be doing is using the quick splicers to connect the kit to the different lights functions; you can find out which wires are for which functions by using the included circuit tester.
You will also need to run the included black wire up to the battery on your 2005 Honda Element to power the Modulite. You will need to connect the black wire to the included fuse holder and then connect the fuse holder to the battery.
This will give you a 4-Pole connector at the rear bumper of your Element. If you are needing a 7-Way because your trailer has brakes then you will need to install the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7. I have attached a video of this kit being installed on a 2003 Honda Pilot that you can use as a reference as well.
If your trailer does not have brakes but you still need a 7-Way then you can simply install part # 37185 instead. I have attached a video of this part being installed on a 2001 Honda Odyssey that you can follow.
