We have a solution that will allow you to install a 5-way on your 2017 Honda Pilot, but it is not a direct 5-way that is a simple plug and play solution.
You'll need to first start with a 4-way like the part # 118760 which is a plug and play option but then you'll need to convert it to a 5-way with the part # C57187. This plugs into the 4-way and gives you an addtional circuit you can run to the reverse light circuit of your vehicle so that the 5th circuit is active.
