How to Mount 7-Way Connector on a 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Sport with a 2" Trailer Hitch
Question:
Hi. I have a 2020 Land Rover Sport and I've already had the Drawtite 75229 hitch installed for my bike rack but now I'm thinking about towing a trailer and I need to install wiring and a 7-Way for a brake controller but there is a very obvious problem which is I don't know how to store the 7-Way. I know that the smaller connection can be stored in the trunk and there are brackets that wrap around the beam of the hitch for a 7-Way but on this one the beam is hidden. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Oh and the parts I am thinking about installing are the ZCI wiring and the wiring kit that is used for the Echo brake controller for the phone.

Thank you for all of the information! The Draw-Tite # 75229 combined with the ZCI # 119250KIT and # ETBC7L wiring for the Curt Echo # C51180 is a fantastic combination for your 2020 Land Rover Range Rover Sport.
To hold the 7-Way connector next to the 2" receiver of your Draw-Tite trailer hitch you just need the Curt Easy Mount Bracket # C58000. This basically secures around the 2" Draw-Tite receiver and then sits to the side so you can carry both wiring connectors that come with the ETBC7L but there is a gap so you can still connect your safety chains.
I have attached some installation videos as well as a photo showing what the end result is for the Cust Easy Mount Bracket that you can check out.
