Parts Needed to Install 2 inch Hitch and Brake Controller on 2013 Mercedes GL450
Question:
Looking to add a 2inch receiver hitch and harness to my 2013 Benz GL450 to tow a 2-axle travel trailer with brakes. Want to stay with OEM parts if possible. What do I need? Options with part #s please.

Helpful Expert Reply:
We don't carry OEM towing components for your 2013 Mercedes Benz GL450 but we do have great options like with the Curt hitch part # C13190 which is a similar design. Then for trailer wiring you'd need to start with a 4-way like the part # C59236 and then convert to a 7-way with the part # ETBC7 so that you can install a brake controller like the Brake EVN # TK63VR.
