It sounds like you are looking for a 7-way trailer connector for your 2012 Suzuki Grand Vitara. You will first want to start with a 4-way if you don't have one. For that you would want the Curt Wiring Harness # 56002 you were referring to.

Now to convert it to a 7-way you will want the # 37185 if you don't have trailer brakes. Or part # ETBC7 plus a brake controller if you do have trailer brakes. This product comes with everything needed to convert the 4-way to a 7-way and install a brake controller.

For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup.
