If you have the bare wires that are connected to the vehicle lighting circuits, but just need the 4-Way connector, then you can use the Draw-Tite 4-Way Hardwire Kit, part # 18252, that you have referenced. This will tap into your loose wires and give you a 4-Way connector on the rear of your vehicle.
To add a complete wiring harness and 4-Way trailer connector, you would need Tow Ready Custom Fit Vehicle Wiring, # 118312. I have included a link to the installation details below.
To protect the connector from damage, I would recommend using a mounting bracket, like item # 18144, or the Mag-Flat 4-Pole Mounting Magnet, item # 38095, to secure the connector when not in use.
