Nice product. Works as intended. Only problem is the lack of a mounting bracket. The plastic case has a slot molded in for a bracket - but no bracket is included! A couple of adhesive mounting tabs and cable ties might hold it, but I wouldn't risk the consequences of dragging it down the road when it falls off. I made up the aluminum bracket that should have been included.56146

• Trailer Wiring Harness and 5-Way Flat Adapter for a 2003 Honda Odyssey Towing a Boat Trailer
  
• First, you will need to install Trailer Wiring Harness # 118336 on your 2003 Honda Odyssey. I have incldued a link to the installation instructions and a link to a video showing a typical installation for you to view. Since the boat trailer has a 5-Way flat connector, the 5th wire is probably for an electric reverse lockout. You will need to add 4 Pole to 5 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter, # 20036. The additional blue wire will connect to the reverse light circuit behind one of the vehicle tail

• Tail Light Converter Needed to Equip a Motorcycle with a 4-Way Flat Plug
  
• If the 4-Way wiring you currently have has a black converter box in the middle, then you should already have what you need to wire your motorcycle. On the side of the box that has loose wires, you should have a white wire for the ground, a green wire for the right turn signal, a yellow for the left turn signal, and a red for the brake lights. As long as you have a converter with a wiring layout like this, you would just hook up the yellow and green wires to the turn signals on the appropriat

• Trailer Wiring Needed to Tow a Boat Trailer with a 2011 Land Rover
  
• You are not being mislead. The line of Land Rover vehicles have European wiring, sensitive circuitry and computers that require a circuit protected and converted wiring system for towing American made trailers with combined trailer lighting. Since you mentioned a 5-Way connector, you would also need to protect the circuit coming from your vehicles reverse light circuit. The only wiring harness that we stock that provides protection for the reverse light circuit is the Tow Ready 5-Way Wiring K

• Wiring a 5-Way Flat Trailer Connector on a 1992 Ford F-250 and F-350
  
• Wiring a 5-way flat connector on your 1992 Ford Truck should be a fairly simple process. You have two options for wiring a 5-way flat connector which are hard wiring a new wiring harness or adding an adapter. To hard wire a 5-way connector you will want the 5-Flat Vehicle End Wiring Harness, # 20016. To install this wiring harness you will cut off your 4-way connector and splice the wires from the 5-way flat into the wires from the 4-way connector color for color. There will be an additional

• Powered Tail Light Converter for a 2008 BMW X3 and Trailer with Separate Brake and Turn Lights
  
• The # 119177KIT could be used on your 2008 BMW X3. However, in addition to the 5 wire converter, you will need another converter, # 118158. The reason is the 5 wire converter will combine the brake and turn signals. Since your trailer has separate turn and brake lights, the second converter is needed. The running light circuit will bypass the second converter. Only the ground, right turn/brake and left turn/brake will going into the converter. What I would do is cut off the 5-Way connector o

• Adding a 5-Way Trailer Connector to a 2012 Audi Q5 to Tow a Trailer with Electric Reverse Lockout
  
• The best option to add a fifth pin for the reverse light circuit on your 2012 Audi Q5 will be to install the Modulite Wiring Harness, # 119177KIT. The reverse light circuit on your vehicle likely uses pulse width modulation (PWM) like your other tail light circuits and would require a wiring harness with a powered converter box that can detect PWM. Since you already have a PWM wiring harness installed on your vehicle, you could just cut the wires from the input side of the converter box and
