  • Recommended Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2014 Volkswagen Jetta GLI
  • Correct, the GLI models have different tail lights so you won't be able to use a plug-in trailer wiring harness. That said, we do still have an option in the Curt Tail Light Converter with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector part # C56496 which will hardwire directly into the wires behind the tail lights. It provides a 4-pole/4-way connector which is the most common and widely used. If you don't already have a trailer hitch picked out then I recommend adding the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver...

  • Will Using Roadmaster RM-195125 Spare Tire Carrier Allow Hatch of 2019 Doge Grand Caravan to Open
  • I don't have vehicle specific information that would allow me to definitively say that the carrier would allow the rear hatch to open fully, but I can certainly help you figure it out. To determine if you'll have clearance, you'll need to do some measurements. The stock tire size for the 2019 Dodge Grand Caravan was 225/65-17, which would have a diameter of about 28-1/2 inches. So, the top of the tire would sit at 28-1/2 inches above the ground, when the tire is pivoted to the side....

So if your hitch has a 200 pound weight capacity, with the adapter on it can only carry 100 pounds. Since the Doubletrack weighs approximately 46 pounds, this means the total weight...
