To install a 7-way in your 2017 Honda Pilot that does not have the tow package the harness you want is the part # 118286 which is a confirmed fit. It comes with all of the needed wiring to install the 7-way and will fit your vehicle that does not have the tow package as well. I attached an install video for more info as well.
If the trailer you plan on towing has brakes you'd also want a brake controller to activate them.
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. This is a proportional brake controller that senses the amount of braking the tow vehicle is applying and applies a proportionate amount to the trailer brakes. This will be the last brake controller you buy. It can easily be transferred to future vehicles as well.
To install the controller all you need is the install harness part # 3070-P which is a confirmed fit.
