Availability Of Short 4-way to 7-way Adapter
Question:
Do you have short molded adapter from 4 way flat to 7 way blade with spring loaded door to be mounted to an aftermarket bumper? I have a hole in vehicle frame/bumper directly behind the aftermarket bumper, but would like a molded, short body, maybe a 90 deg. style tail or back portion on the female connector that I want to mount to/through the bumper.

The closest thing we have to a molded 4-way flat to 7-way blade adapter is the Custer Trailer Connector Adapter - 4-Way Flat to 7-Way Round # KIT-7P-4 which has the 4-way connector to plug into the 4-way on your vehicle and give you the 7-way blade connector you are looking for.
If you are just needing the lighting functions of the 7-way then you will not need to use the 3 additional wires. If your trailer has trailer brakes, or has a battery and you need 12v power in the connector you will need to use a length of # 10-2-1 with circuit breaker # 38630 to activate the 12v circuit.
