Installation: Connection points are located behind the trim panels on both the driver and passenger sides. On 2008 and newer models, there are two sets of connectors. Connect the t-one harness to those that are closer to the vehicle taillights. On all models, the power wire that is run to the vehicle battery can either be done by routing the wire through a grommet underneath the vehicle, or by following the existing wires along the inside of the vehicle behind the trim panels. The 4-pole trailer connector will be stowed in the side storage compartment on the driver's side.
Tech Tip: It is always a good idea to apply a small amount of grease to all electrical connections to help prevent corrosion.

Easy and quick order+install
Lee from Pittsburgh, PA
Well worth it. Two day order to delivery from eTrailer. Easy wiring, idiot proof. Just plug in the connectors and attach to the battery. RAV4 Owners should note, the vehicle is the challange on this install. Its lamp wires are short, the trim is tight and you'll need to be creative running power from the battery. I zip tied it to the frame.

Must have wiring kit

I agree with everything that LEE just mentioned. I ran the power cable to the battery from the inside of the car via plastic shield by the door frame on the floor.

I installed this on a 2008 Rav4 in about two hours. As the instructions suggested, I ran the positive line up the inside by removing the side trim from the back and front side compartments. I then ran the positive wire through the front firewall via a wiring harness access port and made the battery connection as instructed. This was an easy clean installation. Highly recomment and would buy again, if I had the need.

What Toyota needs.

This is what Toyota should have installed when you order the Tow Package. I think they've corrected this now.

Just what I needed, custom fit
Willie B. from Ohio
The instructions were right on, but I skipped removing the side trim panels and worked through the access doors. Wiring was a little short for the passenger side, maybe because I didn't remove the panels. I ran the battery cable under the car, as I had no stomach for removing all that trim. I used split tubing to protect it.
Didn't like running the trailer pig tail through the door when I use it, found a "vent" from the access area to the outside and ran the wiring for the trailer and the battery through that. Install took a whole afternoon, but some time was spent rethreading the battery wire underneath as I didn't like the exposure where I first put it. I also am not electrically inclined, so I took my time and reread the instructions so I didn't fry a computer somewhere.
All in all, a positive experience. Best price on the web for the system, too!!

Problem w/Install Instructions
Mike from Colorado Springs, CO
The installation instructions don't indicate that there are TWO identical connectors on the passenger side that the wiring harness can plug into. Only one of them is visible when the rear panel is removed, and that is the WRONG connector. The correct connector is next to the tail light where it can't be seen! I ordered a replacement harness because I thought the first one was defective. That was the only issue, the harness works very well and all others connections were easy to make.
