For your 2017 Honda CR-V the trailer wiring harness I recommend is the Tekonsha part # 118741. This is the easiest to install and most reliable option. It will work great with the Class III hitch # 76128 that you have planned to install on the vehicle as well.
I attached an install video for the hitch and the wiring kit to this page also.
If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
