If I'm understanding you correctly, you'd like to switch the 4 way connector on your trailer to a 7 way round connector, which is absolutely possible and is required if you're doing something like adding electric brakes to your trailer.
To add a 7 way to your trailer, I recommend using the Epicord # 277-000141 because it comes with a junction box attached that will make the wiring of the new trailer connection much easier. You will want to cut the 4 way on your trailer off and wire those... view full answer...
I may have a solution for you, but I was not able to find any information on which model the #1112D corresponds to, since there are 2 different models in the VW Beetle and the VW Super Beetle. If you've got a SuperBeetle then I recommend using the Blue Ox Base Plate Kit - Fixed Arms # BX3809 and Blue Ox Acclaim Tow Bar - A-Frame - Car Mount - 5,000 lbs # BX4330. This tow bar comes with safety cables included, so it's one less thing that you'll need to complete your flat towing setup.

The straps can also be used to secure your front wheels and handlebars so they do not move while in transit. I recommend you avoid cutting the bike rack's straps if possible. view full answer...
We don't offer a kit that would keep your 12-v socket powered up, but we do have a solution for you.
I'd recommend using a Roadmaster 12V outlet kit, part # RM-9332. The wiring feeding the outlet would run through the firewall and connect to the battery. This is how folks will typically power a portable braking system like the Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR. I'd also recommend installing a charge line kit like # RM-156-25 to provide a maintenance charge to the battery while the Beetle's being... view full answer...

There are two drawbacks to doing this: using any adapter will cut your hitch's capacity... view full answer...
