Expert Reply:

The Hopkins Fold-Over Mounting Bracket # HM48595 that you referenced is a universal fit. This means that it will be compatible with most, but not all 4-Way connectors that are out there as design can vary between manufacturers.

You can use the internal dimensions of 1-1/3" wide x 1/2" tall (see attached photo) to help you determine if it will work for you application.
