Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow Trailer Connector Installation - 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500- Video

Hola neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer, and today, we're taking a look and installing the Hopkins 7-way as well 5-flat and 4-flat trailer wiring connector on a 2017 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500. Now, this is a great option to upgrade from your previous 7-pole, not only because you can get a nice plug that goes up 180 degrees, which this one, being in an angle, makes it a lot easier to get our plug in, whereas our previous one, you can see it doesn't quite open up as much, so you're kinda at a downward angle, it's hard to see if it's actually attached. And this one also has two handles here to make it easy, but the great part too is you're no longer stuck with just a 7-pole, you also have a 5-flat as well as a 4-flat down here, so you can still get those lighting functions, whether you're hooking up to your 7 or your 4-flat, and you can actually do both. So our neighbor here today is flat towing his vehicle, but he also has a bike rack that has lights on it, so he can plug his 4-pole in here, and it's gonna work on both of them. What's nice about this kit is it's going to be a pretty simple installation, because it comes with a bracket to mount up. Ours already had that, so we don't have to use it, but it also comes with the mounting hardware here, and it also comes with terminal grease, so you can get that dielectric protection on your plug. more
