I do have a solution for you but unfortunately there are no adapters for a round 4-Way connector on your trailer to the Curt T-Connector # C56291 on your 2016 Honda Pilot.
Instead what you will need to do is swap out the 4-Way round connector on your trailer for a 4-Way flat connector. I recommend cutting the connector off and splicing the Hopkins Endurance Easy-Pull Harness # HM38134 on your trailer wiring so that you get a connector on your trailer that is compatible with your vehicle. This wiring harness features the easy-pull connector that helps make disconnecting your trailer wiring much easier than if you had a typical 4-Way flat connector like part # HM48110. The current pricing on this unit can be found on the product page.
