We're going to have a factory connector that we're going to plug directly into, which is going to be right behind the bumper, right here in the center. And CURT did put a nice loom around the wire, so it's going to protect it and kind of hide that color a little bit, so we don't have such bright wires in the back of our car.So now that you've seen what our wiring looks like, let's show you how to get it installed.Now we already have our hitch installed on our SRX, but if you don't, there's going to be a panel that's going to be right here, and we're going to need to remove two Phillips head screws in order to get to our wiring.Now the wiring harness itself that we're going to be plugging into, is going to be right behind the bumper, right above where our hitch is. Our wiring harness is going to be directly in the center, and most likely, it's going to have a clip holding it to the frame, but if we reach up there, we can grab it and pull it down, making it a lot easier to work with.The connector we're going to be looking for is a gray cap and four plugs on the very end of it. more
