Braking, Wiring, and Charge Kit for Flat Towing 2013 Ford Edge
Question:
Just double checking the following set up for my 2013 Ford Edge AWD V6. I have all the base plate, tow bar, cables for towing. Focusing now on the supplemental braking system and wiring now. Looking at DEMCO stay n play duo w/wireless monitor DM86VR, Wiring Kit HM56001, Battery Charge Line Kit RM-156-25, Hopkins 4way to a 5way 20017 and a Hopkins 7way to a 5/4way flat with nite glow HM47075. Should that about complete my setup?

Expert Reply:
The best permanent install style tow bar braking system is the Demco Stay n Play part # DM86VR so you are definitely on the right track. The Hopkin lighting kit part # HM56001 installs easily as it is custom fit for your 2013 Ford Edge and doesn't require any splicing.
The coiled adapter part # HM47075 and the charge kit part # RM-156-25 would be all you'd need in addition as well.
