Best Wiring Harness for 2018 Volkswagen Atlas

Hello, I have a 2018 VW Atlas and Im going to buy the hitch. I was wondering what type of electrical kit do I need?

Helpful Expert Reply:
The best wiring harness for your 2018 Volkswagen Atlas is the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118754 because we have found that the manufacturer, Tekonsha, makes the most reliable wiring harnesses in the industry.
Additionally, I also highly recommend using Dielectric Grease for Electrical Connectors # 11755 to help prevent any type of corrosion in your connector; using it will increase your 4-way's durability and extend its lifespan.
I can also confirm that the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13366 you mentioned is a fit for your 2018 VW Atlas. I have added links to video installs on an '18 Atlas for you to check out of both the hitch and T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118754.
