Parts Needed to Convert a 4-way to a 7-way on a 2005 Dodge Durango
Question:
I Dont have a factory tow package and I just bought a 2004 prowler rv trailer. It has a 7 pin female wiring harness attached. I have a traditional flatinch wiring harness on the Durango, is there an adaptor to connect the 2?

We have exactly what you need. If your trailer doesn't have brakes all you would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way would be the part # 37185.
If your trailer has brakes you will first want to start with a brake controller. For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup.
Now to install the brake controller all you would need is the brake controller install kit and 4-way to 7-way adapter part # ETBC7. This comes with everything needed for installation. Check out the install video and instructions I attached.
