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.
Features:
Installation
This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located behind the driver's-side and passenger's-side tail lights. You will have to remove the tail light assemblies to access this harness.
Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed beneath your vehicle, near the trailer hitch. A mounting bracket (sold separately) is recommended to keep the connector secure.
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.

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.Great deal and super fast delivery. Wiring harness was easy to install!
This product (item #55323) is very easy to install. I found multiple videos on YouTube and the instructions are just as easy to follow. All I needed to do was clip some wires together and that’s it! No splicing necessary which is what I was looking for. I signed up for the cheapest shipping method and it still showed up here in Minnesota a couple days early. Now I can actually have working lights on my trailer! Totally worth the money and I will be shopping etrailer.com more often! Thank you!
I have been impressed with everything I have ordered. Easily installed
Order got to me in timely manner and got a follow-up message!!!
Great product. Fit right on
Very easy install.
So far so great super easy install with the hitch and wiring harness. Great price and fast shipping I will be back for all my trailer needs. Thanks guys.
everything fit as it should
Excellent very easy to install... plug and play
I haven't been able to test the product with a trailer, but I can easily write a review about the installation and etrailer's efficiency.
Etrailer processed the order and had at my door within three days. The product was packaged very well, and etrailer's communication was top notch. The kit installed with very little effort, and etrailer's installation video was perfect.
I will definitely come back for future trailer related needs.
I bought one a few yrs back for my 2000 dodge Dakota. They worked Awesome intal I got rear ended. I pick up another dodge Dakota. I took my old ones off for my next truck. But didn’t match up.
That’s ok.. Yes they worked great & easy to intal.
so I called etrailer ordered another set.
2-3 days later & 5 minutes to intal
Happy Camper. Plug & play that’s it.. well Recommend... Happy trucking
Thx etrailer ??

This set works just as awesome as the first one I bought… Great product..
Performed exactly as advertised on my 2005 Dodge Dakota. Although the vÃdeo wasn't super helpful with specifics (like the vÃdeo for the hitch intall, which was perfect), it's pretty easy to figure out. I got a little bit ahead of myself and unplugged ALL of the tail light connectors when in fact I only had to unplug one on each side. On my Dakota, each side has two separate bulbs and therfore two connectors. The bottom bulb and conector are only for the White backup light and there is no such conector on the trailer wiring harness therefore no need to mess with that conector. The top bulb and conector are for the running lights and blinker/brake light. Therefore, you only have to unplug that top conector and insert the conector for the trailer wire in it's place. Last trick, at least for my Dakota, the tail-light lens module comes off by pulling it straight back towards the rear of the truck and at first it seemed like it would never let loose. I almost broke one of the alignment pins by attempting to twist or pivot the lens module and it would have been better to find a way to pry it off by pulling straight toward the back of the truck rather than pulling out to the side. The trailer wiring harness was a perfect fit for my Dakota and worked perfectly once installed, no cutting or splicing of any kind was necessary. The only other thing you may want to do is buy some dielectric grease to prevent corrosion in the contact points of the connectors. Most auto parts stores sell a single use packet of dielectric grease for about $1.79 on a rack near the cash register along with single use packets of caliper pin grease, silicone grease and other special lubricants.

We actually offer a small tube of dielectric grease as part #496971. Dielectric grease works very well for keeping moisture and corrosion out of electrical connections.

Had the harness in two days and it was exactly as advertised. Instructions were just a skosh bit fuzzy but that's probably because I'm on the downhill side of 78. Only problem I experienced was popping the plastic "rivets" out of the bed panel while removing the tail light assembly without breaking the lens. Works great and had it done in less than an hour. Thanks

I no longer have the vehicle but everything I have ever purchased from you folks has been really good.
Fit perfectly. Installed the trailer hitch receiver by myself in about an hour but was no easy task (had no help).
The trailer wiring harness installation info could have explained the installation a little better but worked as described.

Still working great!
Part fit fine, but the plug will insert both ways into the light, so if the trailer lights only work on one side or backwards, check that the orientation of the plug is correct. The colors did not all match, so it is not obvious which way the plug went in in my 2004 Dakota.
The kit appeared very well made, good materials. It was very simple to install (using the well-written instructions). I tested my lights before applying the tie-wraps and it functioned perfectly, so I applied the tie-wraps, and was finished. It took me about 45 minutes total. Not bad at all. Good product, reasonably priced, well made, and easy to install.

Works great after a year
Top bolt threads a little difficult but. Greased it and then scrwwee down ok . fit perfectly. Great deal along with the tail light wiring. Easy to install
I could not be any happier with this product or with etrailer. This installation was very easy from beginning to finish. The price was very reasonable and I look forward to do business with etrailer in the near future.
Couldn't be more pleased. I ordered Sat and didn't think it would ship til Monday. Then got your email that it shipped Sat. The harness is a breeze to install and works perfect. Great product.

Still working great. Have recommended it several times.
I was very pleased with the ease of installation of this product! No poking wires with test light needed! No cutting and splicing wires! No standing behind the trailer saying "No the lights not on"??. Just unpackage item,remove tail lights from vehicle,unplug each lights "male and female" connections and insert the new connections that come on this wiring harness! Zip tie up any hanging wires! So much easier and a no stress! I highly recommended this product and the employees here are great! They took the time to answer all the questions I had with no problem. If you need to install a wiring harness for a trailer this is definetly the way to go and the business to buy it from! Any vehicle in the future I need to add a trailer wiring harness to, this will be the place I turn too
Really easy to install. Took all of 10 minutes to do. The plug that goes to the light socket is kind of hard to get together because it's a really tight fit. That's my only complaint. I'm kinda worried about it staying together.

Used it a lot last month and still working well
Exactly as advertised. Very easy to install. My 15 yr. old son finished the whole installation in about 15 minutes. Solid components and I foresee no issues with the wiring lasting a long time.

The trailer light kit has actually gotten better over the past year. After it was first installed we had some problems getting the trailer lights to work and once in awhile we would have some rapid turn signal flashing on our truck when the trailer was plugged into the wiring harness. This year after getting our boat out of storage the hook up has worked perfectly. I have no explanation but I have to say your system is way easier to install than the splicing that other systems require.
Perfect fit, easy to install, instructions were written very well with good pictures to aid in locations. High-quality material, should last for many years.
Highly recommended to replace those worn out corroded standard 4-pin trailer wiring harnesses.
