Replacement 7-Way Trailer Connector for a 2012 Chevy Silverado
Question:
Will this fit in the rear bumper of a 2012 Silverado? What size hole does it require?
asked by: David C
Expert Reply:
The correct replacement 7-Way trailer connector for a 2012 Chevy Silverado is # PK11916. It twists into the existing location on the bumper of the truck. I have linked a video showing installation of this connector for you.
Connector # 47565 is actually an adapter meant to plug into a 7-Way trailer connector and it provides a 6-Way and 4-Way on the output side. It is not a stand alone item since it needs to be plugged into a 7-Way such as # PK11916.
