Today we are going to install part number 118417 from Tow Ready. We are going to install this on a 2007 Chevrolet Impala. To install the T-1 connector, we have to get back behind the tail light assembly here and behind this plastic. We are also going to be taking off the passengers side tail light, too. And this whole panel will just pop up straight vertical. And we are going to take off this other wing nut right here. Now that we have got our tail light loose, we are going to just temporarily disconnect it from the wiring harness. And then this actual plug right here is where our T-1 connector is going to hook up to the vehicle. We will reconnect the T-1 connector back in, and just tuck that back between the bumper fascia and the body. And we are also going to take our 4-pole wire, and we are going to route that straight down, because that is going to come out by the hitch itself. Make sure to leave that ground wire, because we are going to attach it to the sheet metal below the tail light. And we will just clip our original wire harness back on.
All right, our next step is to go ahead and reattach our tail light assembly. From the bottom of the vehicle, we will reach up and pull out our wire harness. Just get a grip on it. We will actually push it back up and over this bumper support to keep it away from the exhaust. What we can do is just go ahead and simply zip-tie it to the hitch. All right, and then we will take our 4-pole flat and secure it to the chain loop right here. All right, and one final check to make sure your wires are not pinched or rubbing against anything, and then you are pretty much set up and ready to go. And that covers it for our install of part number 118417 from Tow Ready on our 2007 Chevrolet Impala.
