Yes, there is an exterior connector for the trailer wiring harness. Tekonsha has a Wiring Harness for your 2017 Cadillac XT5, part # 118720, that will provide a 4-way trailer connector for you.
If you already have a trailer hitch installed, like part # e62AR, the connection that you will be looking for is just up and to the driver's side of your 2017 Cadillac XT5. Just connect the wiring harness that I mentioned earlier and you are good to go!

Along with the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1716 and the Blue Ox Alpha 2 Tow Bar # BX7380 there are a couple more parts you need in order to safely flat tow your 2016 Cadillac Escalade.
Since the Alpha comes with safety chains we can check that off the list but you will also need a wiring kit in order to activate your Escalade's brake lights and turn signals. For that the best option is the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267, or you can simply add magnetic... view full answer...
The correct Roadmaster base plate kit for your 2014 Cadillac SRX is the Roadmaster part # RM-523162-4. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.
For braking you don't use a standard brake controller like when towing and instead you use supplemental braking which is a similar concept but different. The easiest system to set up and use is the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR, that applies the vehicle brakes in proportion to how much the tow vehicle is braking. This is... view full answer...
It sounds like you might be trying to add a wiring harness to tow a trailer with your 1971 Cadillac Eldorado and there is not a custom harness for this vehicle, but you could use the Curt Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector - 60" Wire Lead # C58044 and hard wire one in. This would be the only available solution to accomplish this.
I've linked an installation video of this that you can use as a rough guide during the process, as well as a helpful article we did on... view full answer...
I have a creative solution for you. Unfortunately, we do not carry a customized-fit option for a hitch on your 1962 Cadillac DeVille convertable. The only option we have is to use a universal hitch like the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver - 18"-51" Wide # C13701. The Curt universal hitch comes with adjustable brackets that will fit frames between 18-51 inches wide. In order to make sure that your frame falls within these dimensions, I recommend that you measure your frame (from side... view full answer...

For your 2015 Cadillac SRX AWD I recommend going with the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 75682. This provides you with a 2-inch receiver which not only accepts a larger variety of accessories over the 1-1/4 option, but it also has a higher towing capacity at 4,000 lbs and 400 tongue weight which is plenty enough for the 2,800 lb trailer... view full answer...

For your 2023 Cadillac XT6 we have the # WTW418GR for the front mats in gray, and the # WT45MV for the 2nd row. I am not sure why they would have told you that they do not make grey mats.

I recommend installing the Roadmaster Direct-Connect Base Plate Kit # RM-523179-5 on your 2020 Cadillac Escalade. This will require cutting 3 holes in the lower fascia of your front bumper for the mechanical and electrical connections. The Roadmaster Nighthawk All Terrain, Non-Binding Tow Bar # RM-676 is their best selling tow bar. The aluminum and stainless steel construction provides for superior corrosion resistance over several years of use. You may need a High-Low adapter like the... view full answer...
If you've already got a 4 flat like the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56044 on your 2013 Cadillac CTS then in order to add a 7 way connector you'll want to use the # ETBC7L. The # ETBC7L is designed to work with wireless brake controllers, so I recommend using the Curt Echo # C51180 which is controlled by smartphones running iOS 8.0 or newer, or Android 4.4 or newer. The Echo plugs into the # ETBC7L and accepts the trailer's 7 way plug to... view full answer...
The 2004 Cadillac Escalade AWD can be flat towed by using a transmission lube pump from Remco Towing. You will also need base plates, a tow bar, safety chains, lighting, and supplemental braking.
For base plates, I recommend the Roadmaster XL base plates, # 199-5. These base plates are compatible with numerous Roadmaster tow bars and the draw bars can be removed when not towing the vehicle. For a compatible tow bar, I recommend the RoadMaster Blackhawk 2 All Terrain Tow Bar, # RM-422.... view full answer...
I recommend installing the K-Source Snap & Zap Custom Towing Mirrors # KS49NQ onto your 2023 Cadillac Escalade. These towing mirrors will snap over the backs of your factory side-view mirrors and will extend your line of sight. These mirrors have a custom design that will match the contour of your existing mirrors, which will prevent vibration and wind noise and will provide a secure fit for your vehicle. The mirrors have a tool-free installation and removal with no hardware needed. The... view full answer...
First you need the base plate kit which you have already picked out part # RM-523162-4 which is a confirmed fit for your 2014 Cadillac SRX without cruise control.

In order to determine if your vehicles can be flat towed and if there are any special requirements (such as a specific transmission or engine) you will want to consult your vehicle owner's manuals.

I would be happy to help you. Both the Curt item # C12058 and the Draw-Tite item # 36287 trailer hitches are confirmed to fit your 2008 Cadillac DTS.

I'm not completely understanding why you're needing an adapter, and why it'd need to reach around the bumper. Which hitch are you using? I'd recommend using the Curt Class II receiver hitch, part # C12054.
I'd recommend simply using a cargo carrier that's designed for a 1-1/4 inch receiver like the 20x48 Curt cargo carrier, part # C18110. Using an adapter will lower the tongue weight capacity (maximum amount of downward force that can be safely applied to hitch) by half. You'll avoid this... view full answer...
Thanks so much for the photos as they were very helpful; they show your trailer's drums are 12 inches in diameter, and that you do have a 5-bolt brake mounting flange. To switch from hydraulic to electric trailer brakes you are correct you would be able to use your current coupler as well as drums, and we do have the parts needed for you to switch, which are the following:
