Trailer Hitch and Wiring Recommendations for a 2012 Volvo C70 Convertible
Question:
I am looking at buying a hitch for my C70 Convertible. I see your wonderful videos about how to install the hitch. What about the wiring package to buy and install with the hitch? This would be so that the brake lights on a trailer work with the cars brake lights. Also, do you have videos or instructions on how to install the wiring? Thanks!

For your 2012 Volvo C70 T5 convertible I recommend trailer hitch # C11065. The recommended ball mount is # C11031 and the pin and clip is # F-4. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for a 2 inch ball use # 19258. The ball required should be stamped into the top of the coupler on the trailer.
