There are many products to adapt a 6-pole round vehicle connector to a 4-pole flat trailer connector. One such item is the Pollak 6 Pole to 4 Pole Connector Adapter, part # PK12717. This nylon housing adapter simply plugs into your 6-pole connector.
Another product you might consider is the Hopkins Endurance Flex Trailer Connector Adapter w/ LED Circuit Tester - 6-Pole to 4-Pole, part # HM47320. This adapter includes a 5 inch flexible wire between the 6-pole and 4-pole connectors that can make hook up easier, a built-in LED circuit tester to help when troubleshooting your wiring and a connector cover on the 4-pole side to protect the terminals from dust, grime and corrosion. Hopkins thoughtfully includes a packet of dielectric grease to protect the electrical connections.
I have included a link to our product page that shows these and other products that will suit your needs.
