You'd need to convert the 4-way to a 5-way so that you can have the reverse light circuit for the lockout solenoid. For that you'd want the part # C57187. Basically this just plugs into your vehicle 4-way and then you run the extra wire to your reverse light circuit using the included quick splice and you're ready to go.

On the trailer side the lockout solenoid # T4748800 will have one wire grounded to the trailer frame and one wire connected to the reverse light circuit of the 5-way trailer wiring.
