I recommend using the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118384 with the Rampage SuperBrite LED Tailgate Light Bar # RA960134. This will allow you to easily hide all the wiring as well as not lose your connector for towing. Since it simply connects in line of your current trailer connector there is no wire splicing required.
With the factory 4-Way/7-Way connector on your 2017 Ram 1500 like the Hopkins # HM40975, you will not be able to fully open both the caps as they share the same hinge.
