For your 2017 Subaru Outback Wagon we have trailer wiring that plugs into the connector at the rear of the vehicle like with the Tekonsha harness part # 118467 which I recommend the highest. This installs easily and has the most reliable converter box. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.
