Installation
This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located in your cargo area. You will have to remove all trunk floor coverings, storage trays, and the scuff panel to access these connection points. Once you've plugged in the T-connector, run the hot lead to your car battery. Connect the lead to the included fuse holder, and then connect the fuse holder to the positive terminal on your battery.
Once installation is complete, the 4-way connector will be stowed in an out-of-the-way location within your trunk.
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.
A tail light converter is built into this T-connector. This converter is a circuit-protected, battery-powered unit that bypasses the electrical routes that are used by a basic wiring harness. As a result, there is virtually no draw on your tail light circuits.
Because most trailers run on a two-wire system - wherein the brake and turn signals are carried on one wire - the separate brake and turn signals from your vehicle's three-wire system need to be combined so they are compatible with the wiring system of the trailer. This converter combines the brake and turn signal functions of your automobile so that they run on one wire to properly activate your trailer's tail lights. Note: This will not affect how the tail lights on your vehicle operate.
Curt builds each tail light converter using surface-mount technology (SMT). This method of construction involves soldering electronic components directly to the surface of a printed circuit board. SMT eliminates the need for leads, which are used in older through-hole technology. The result is a circuit board that is smaller yet provides more routing area and that offers superior performance, reliability and durability.
Circuit boards constructed using SMT have been shown to perform better under rough conditions with excessive vibration than those made using the through-hole method. And where would vibration be more likely to occur than in towing applications? Curt converters also produce less heat, leading to increased durability and longer life. In addition, lower levels of resistance ensure better performance, especially for parts that operate at higher frequencies.
Each Curt circuit board is made using high-quality components that are pieced together in the most technologically savvy fashion, leading to greater predictability and reliability in functioning.

Easy to install. Watched a youtube video and had no issues. Great customer service and quality part.
Pretty straightforward on installation after watching the video etrailer posted on the Volvo XC90.
Item was clearly repackaged. Never the less I had to use it and it seems to work fine. Install was easy with the assistance of a very helpful video.
Easy to install and use. Excellent installation instruction video
Works great. Easy to install and tuck everything away when not using to keep from weather. No problems with trailer lighting from either occasional [moving] trailers or personal trailer.
Easy to install
I really like the way the stealth hitch is hidden when not in use on my Volvo XC90.
Easy to install following the installation video
Unable to finish the battery hook up to the wiring. I have "T8" Xc90, Hybird, battery connections are not the same as any information available, unsure at the moment how to proceed, do not want to loose any settings if I take off connections.
As advertised,this harness is a snap to install.
I did also added a”P”clamp to the harnesses at the light assemblies to tuck everything in tight.
Works great!!
Works great,easy install.
This installed easily and works good.
