Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your Chevrolet Impala with this custom harness. T-connector plugs directly into existing wiring - no cutting, splicing or tapping required.
Features:
Installation
This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the passenger's-side tail light. You will have to remove the tail light assembly to access this harness.
Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed in an out-of-the-way location within your cargo area.
It is recommended that you use a small amount of grease on all electrical connections - the plugs on your automobile and the 4-pole connector itself - to help prevent corrosion.

Today we're going to be taking a look at part number C56046. This is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with your 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector. This is going to fit certain years and models of the Chevrolet Impala. It's going to provide your 4-way flat trailer connector at the back of vehicle to power your trailer's signal lights. This is compatible with 5-pole, 6-pole, and 7-pole adapters. Adapters are sold separately. It's going to come with a dust cap for the 4-way flat connector.
That way you can cover up those connection points when the plug is not being used. The main benefit of this system is not only the 4-way flat connector, but it's designed to connect quickly and easily. You don't have to cut or splice any wires. All you have to do is locate the connection points behind the passenger side tail light and plug in your T-connector. This is vehicle specific.
This is designed to match up perfectly with the connectors on your vehicle. You are going to plug them. They're going to snap-lock together for a nice, tight, secure fit. Once you have that connected, you'll need to make your ground connection. It's going to be a white wire with a ring terminal attached to it. You can make that ground connection to a nice, clean metal surface with the included self-tapping screw that's provided in the hardware kit.
Then you can go ahead and secure your excess wires with the included zip ties. Then once your installation is complete, the 4-way connector is going to be stowed in an out-of-the-way location within your rear cargo area when it's not being used. That's going to come with your detailed instructions. These are going to walk you through the installation process step-by-step. We recommend that you use a small amount of dielectric grease on all your electrical connections like the plugs on the vehicle and the 4-pole connector itself. That's going to help prevent corrosion.
If you don't have some of that, you can find that here at etrailer.com. It is sold separately. That's going to do it for today's look at part number C56046.

Quickly and easily install a 4-way trailer connector on your vehicle with this custom harness. T-connector plugs directly into existing wiring - no cutting, splicing or tapping required.It looks like an excellent product, well made and easy to use. That said, I need to return it. When I opened up the taillight assembly, there was a complete adapter already there, coiled up behind the taillight.
At first was confused since I thought it would connect to each brake light. But Chevy ran everything to one tail light then over to the other so just one connection. The wire is heavy enough it can take me shutting the trunk over it. I have used this now for close to a year and used it a lot. So it is a good solid product
Very easy install for 2010 Impala. Literally remove three thumb screws, remove tail-light, unplug connector and plug the harness in. There was already a grommet below the tail-light so I could route the 4-pole end into the trunk.
I searched for quite some time for a custom fit wiring harness for my 2015 Impala Limited which is the old body style starting, I believe, in 2006. Once Chevrolet came out with a new body style in, I believe, 2014 for the name Impala, the old style became the Impala Limited. Some manufacturers don't even recognize the Impala Limited at all. The Curt 56046 custom vehicle to trailer wiring harness with the application for only the Impala 06 through 2013 is also a custom plug in fit for the newer Impala Limited. At lease the 2014 and the 2015. You find the plug behind the passenger side tail light, plug in the T-connector, route the wiring through an existing hole to keep it in the trunk, or run it directly to the hitch under the trunk. I'm extremely pleased with the product.

Great
Works perfect . Easy installation .good directions would recommend
Quality built trailer hitch Fit perfectly to car frame mounting locations. Installation videos are accurate and VERY helpful.
The wiring harness for trailer lights is truly a plug and play with VERY easy installation and the length of connecting harness is long enough to reach any trailer hookup you may have.
Should make the install so much easier.
easy to install and works great. Would buy again and recommend highly.
After watching the video I installed the wiring harness in no time. Extremely easy. Free shipping and recieved my package in three days.
Also installed the C12252 trailer hitch. Not much to it. 6 bolts and it's on. My only regret is not purchasing the drawbar too. I will now end up ordering one from etrailer and paying shipping.
good quality and easy to install
This product was very easy to install you do need a drill for the ground wire this was needed for the trailer hitch that I put on.
The ease of installation and the quality of the harness were beyond reproach. I was done in 10 minutes.
Excellent. I love that this harness is plug and play with no need to splice wires or figure out what wire goes to what light. Super easy install.
It took only 5 minutes to install. In fact, it went so fast and easy that I even retraced my steps a couple of times to see if I'd missed anything. Thanks!
I purchased the Curt C56046 T harness for my 2015 impala limited. Easy install worked perfectly and a great price.
Easy installation - only took 25 minutes!!!!! (thanks to the video and literature).......
Follow the instructions for the connector. It is easy.

Exactly what I wanted for a good price, delivered quickly and only took 5 minutes to install and it works great.

After all this time, I give it a 5* still. The electrical connections are good, works the way it should. I haul my trailer about 230mi each way and have made many trips with the hook up and works great
