We have just what you are looking for.

I recommend the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector, part # 118496. This harness plugs into the existing wiring behind the tail lights on your Tacoma. You will need to attach the ground wire with the ring terminal to the frame with a sheet metal screw. This will give you a 4-way connector for your trailer at the rear of your Tacoma. I have attached a link to an installation video for this harness on a 2015 Tacoma you can check out.

To keep the harness wiring nice and neat you may be interested in cable ties we offer like part # DW05726-25. There are 25 ties included in the package.

If you need a mounting bracket for the 4-way trailer connector I recommend part # 18144. This bracket comes with mounting screws.

When working with electrical connectors I recommend using dielectric grease like part # 11755. This keeps dirt and moisture out of the electrical connections and helps prevent corrosion.
