What's up everybody It's AJ with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna be checking out this Curt 7 Pole Bracket. We're gonna use this to install to extend out, where we want our 7 pole plugin to be. Let's check it out. Every setup is a little bit different when you go to add wiring to your vehicle. Sometimes there's not a whole lot of room underneath.
So on our vehicle today, we wanna bring the adapter further out so it's easier to plug in our trailer. You don't want it in back here behind the hitch and there's not really room up here towards the top. So with the long bracket, we attach the 7 pole bracket so it has a spot to stay all the time and we know it's secure. As far as install goes, I would just go ahead and get a long bracket to extend it away from the vehicle so you have something to attach to. But check out how I did it.
We have everything set up here. We're ready to add our 7 pole bracket, and this has the holes here to line up with the top. So it'll just drop our pole through, line up that first one, I'm gonna put a nut on the backside that'll help hold it in place. So now we're gonna add a nut on this side. You wanna make sure you look at the spacing between the holes.
So this bracket is gonna work best with the hole spacing, which is gonna be from center to center on these mounting holes that has this spacing of 2-1/4". Now if you had one that had 2-1/2" like this other one, the holes just aren't gonna line up correctly. You want a different 7 pole bracket, which Pollak offers that as well, that it fits way better. So you just slide that in there and already see 'cause the slot and holes are gonna be more adaptable to whatever setup you have. Same thing with the hardware.
Pull a bolt through here and then add it out on the backside. And we're gonna do that for all 4 holes on our 7 pole. With all 4 of these installed, we'll come back with our wrench, go on the back and then use a flat blade screwdriver to finish tightening it down so the plug stays in place. That about does it for a quick look at the 7 pole bracket, really easy to install and really helpful to have to get that 7 pole moved out more towards the back of the vehicle. Well, I think that does it. Thanks for hanging out, hope this helped.
Thanks guys my trailer hitch for my 2024 GMC Acadia fits perfectly and the wire harness fits perfect also I received it in great timing. I’m well pleased with the hitch
This is kinda flimsy but it works. There are no mounting holes with the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" trailer hitch mount I purchased, so I had to drill holes into the steel, which is kind of a pain, but like I said, it works, so if you're ok with that approach, I'd recommend it.
Mount holes are not same as the 7pin plug bought also on etrailer
This bracket DOES NOT amount on properly to a 2023 Honda Pilot. The class 3 hitch mounting point is more on a slight angle. I’m not one to custom anything thinking this would just mount up but it doesnt
This mounting holes on this didn't fit any of the Curt wiring harnesses I had. I ended up using it by zip tying a couple of mounting holes on the wiring harness and bracket, but they broke during use and I ended up ruining my trailer connector. I replaced it with the Curt 58000 easy mount, which worked much better and didn't require any drilling on the body of the vehicle. Not sure why Curt sells a plate that doesn't match the hole locations on most of its wiring harnesses.
Thin and flimsy. Holes on the "universal" plate didn't line up with the C56413 7 pin wiring harness from the same brand.
Won’t work with end connection of 7 pin connector had to by one at orileys it’s holes don’t line up not even close
Does not work well with the etrailer 7way kit I bought. Holes do not line up
Is not the correct part for a 2025 Honda trailsport.
Doesn’t properly fit the 7-way harness I ordered. The screw holes in the 7-way socket on the harness don’t line up with the holes in this mounting adapter.

I do have an alternate mounting bracket that will work better for you. It is part # PK12711U. The slotted holes tend to line up better that this one does. We will be in contact with you to work out a solution for you.
Should be included at no extra charge, also Arrived late
Easy installation........Quick delivery. Thank you!
Works but I had to modify to work with my setup
Attached to my small John Deere tractor. Worker fine.
Hole pattern did not line up with Curt wiring harness kit I purchased. Not wide enough to be able to modify/redrill. Kind of worthless!
First of all the bracket for the seven pin connector doesn’t work and you don’t get any bolts to connect the bracket to the hitch very disappointing.

Yes, in my opinion this bracket should come with hardware. I recommend part # PK12711U instead. The slotted holes work with more seven ways and it comes with the hardware to attach.
Works great!
Nice brackets, sturdy & strong
Worked perfectly
Works, but it hangs down to far on the Hyundai Santa Cruz.
I gave this bracket only four stars mainly because it wasn't compatible with the Curt 7-way trailer connector that I ordered with it. No problem, etrailer refunded my money right away and shipped me a different bracket. But this bracket is also made of a lighter gauge metal and is thus a little more flimsy than the Hopkins Universal that replaced it. Still, if it fits your connector, it will probably last as long as anything else, and it's half the cost of the Hopkins.
I'll give this an average review since it's possible I just didn't order the right bracket, but the holes on this bracket didn't line up with the holes on the 7 way. Also, this is only helpful if you have either a metal bumper or a hitch kit that hangs lower. For my 2025 Honda Pilot I ended up having to install the 7 way directly into the bumper by cutting a hole, which looks nice and works great but made ordering this bracket pointless. I think this was only like 7$ so I'm not mad, just do your research first and see if you even need it and make sure the holes will line up.
No bolts came with it.
Plug bracket did not fit the mounting holes of the 7 prong wire plug I bought. Maybe I ordered the wrong one, I would think they would be universal. I ended up finding what I needed at O'reilly's auto and it was heavier gauge.
