The wiring harness was super easy to install. The instructions are easy to understand. I highly recommend this to anyone wanting to add a 7-Pole trailer connection to the inside of their bed.

Great Product!! Dealer wanted $200 to $300....Watched the accompanying video, and Installation was pretty straight forward on My 2022 GMC 2500HD. The only pain was getting at the Factory connection clip on the original plug... I chock that up to being my own fault for not dropping the spare tire down for ease of access...
by: Eugene Streekstra08/28/2023
Ordered this for a 2024 Silverado 2500HD even though it wasnt certain that it would be compatible. Once i figured the connections out the actual install took maybe 15 minutes! Ill add i coated all the connection pins with dielectric grease before reconnection. Worked perfectly.
by: Ryan 02/04/2024
I liked this kit. It looks and feels like high quality. Installation was easy and it took very little time to get clean results. Etrailer was great to work with. I talked with Kim on the phone due to some questions that I had after I received my order. The call was professional and helpful. I would order from etrailer again.

I was mad when I saw this, paid $200 to have installed in my previous truck’s bed. When I watched the video and saw it was plug and play I ordered and installed my self in less than 30 minutes. Shipping took a week but I won’t need it until the 3rd week of August when I head out with the fifth wheel. Product came as advertised with every thing needed to install. It looks factory (see pic). I am very happy with how it came out and the installation video was excellent.

Arrived the next day and I only selected basic shipping. This is the only company that seems to have what they sell in stock and ships quickly. Also if you have a problem they bend over backwards to make it right.

This was probably one of the fastest items to install on everything I have added to my 21 GMC Sierra 2500HD, Denali Duramax. The right angle plugs make it simply slip in, plug and play.

2023 GMC Sierra 3500
Worked with Neil on a GMC 2024. U known if adaptable with new GMC. Built my confidence as we spoke. Anyway, it did fit and works great with camper and boat. Made my own face plate to use the dummy hole on the driver's side. Extended my RV cord to fit. No holes drilled in bed. Would of worked better with the GMC factory fit plug but not the case. Excellent. It does work with the 2024 GMC.
by: Jeff G02/14/2023
2021 GMC Sierra 2500
I love the setup but I have a concern that the connection in the bed once installed has a slight right angle into a sharp bed seam. It is at the spot right at the connector with no cable armor. I am concerned this will wear and cause a short down the line.

- Gooseneck Hitch for a 2021 GMC Sierra 1500To add a gooseneck hitch to your 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 you are going to want the Custom Underbed Installation Kit for B&W Companion 5W Hitch item # BWGNRK1019-5W. The underbed install kit gives you the gooseneck hitch plus the added option for a 5th wheel hitch if you ever need one. Please note this will not fit the carbon bed models. To make towing with a gooseneck easier I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness item # C53CR. This harness puts a 7-way connector...

First things first though, we will need to get some rails and wiring installed in the bed of your truck and for that I recommend the Reese Rails # RP56015-53 and Wiring Kit # C53CR. Now that we have all of this squared away we can look at the different 5th wheel hitch options. I personally like the fixed...

This hitch uses the R20 slider which is needed for proper turning clearance in your short bed truck. The hitch has an interlocking 2-jaw system that provides a 360-degree jaw-to-king-pin contact to provide less rattle and more security than slide-bar models. This hitch has a 3-Point indicator system, the color coding tells you if the hitch...

view full answer... - Difference Between Curt 5th Wheel Base Rail Kits For 2021 GMC Sierra 1500That's a good question, and the only difference between the two base rail kits that fit your 2021 GMC Sierra 1500 (6-1/2 foot and 8 foot bed) is the finish. One is a glossy black finish and the other is a carbide black, which essentially means it just doesn't have quite as much shine to it. Otherwise, they are exactly the same, with the same parts and no-drill install in the frame rails of your truck: - Gloss Black Finish: Curt Semi-Custom Fifth Wheel Installation Kit for Chevy/GMC Truck...

I highly recommend it over the Hopkins item # HM54FR. Curt's wiring harnesses are far more reliable.

view full answer... - Troubleshooting Left Hand Turn Signal Not Working On Curt 5TH Wheel Wiring Harness # C53CRI would start by disconnecting the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness # C53CR so you will be able to verify the issue is with this and not either the wiring or a fuse on your truck. Since you mentioned that both connectors are not working I fear it may be a part of the trucks wiring or a damaged connector going into the trucks wiring. Once you have verified this please let me know what you find. Do note the harness has a 1-year warranty through Curt.
