Adapter 4 Pole to 7 Pole Vehicle End Trailer Connector
This product works as expected. There is not too much to the installation, just plug it in properly and mount the ground wire. I did not find an easy way to mount this to my wife's Odyssey, or to the trailer hitch (item# 75270). Luckily, I do prototype design and manufacturing. So I came up with my own solution. I designed and made my own bracket to mount the 7 pole to the trailer hitch. It works like a charm, and looks great!
i had to replace these two items as my dear daughter went down our goat path driveway too fast. they replaced the originals from etrailer from the prior year. shipping is timely and customer service actually helps! i wired from battery to controller to hitch myself, and everything fit.

Adapter 4-Pole to 7-Pole and 4-Pole
Really nice trailer wiring adapter. Very easy install. Takes about 30 minutes with all the tools needed. Drill, 7/64 bit for pilot holes to mount the bracket, flat blade screwdriver and 11/32 nut driver and two #10 self tapping metal screws with locking split washers and a couple zip ties to tidy up the wiring harness.
This Brake Controller works great ! With a little pre planning and watching some videos I was able to install this on my ‘99 Ford Expedition. No knee banging or awkward reaching to set the controller the dial is right on the dash panel. Training and dialing the unit in was a breeze and it gives me consistent braking as needed.

Hopkins 7-Way RV Style Connector with Molded Cable - Trailer End - 8' Long - RV Standard
Çable good but after putting new 7way plug on truck cable wire colors did not match etrailers picture
7 pin connector separated from cable. I was expecting that "Molded Cable" meant that the connector was fused to the cable insulation but instead, the two separated almost immediately after I installed it. It still works fine as the wires are connected securely inside the connector but with the outer covering pulled out like this, I don't think it will last very long.

Pollak Black Plastic, 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector - Trailer End
Sooo, bought another one to match my truck side connection as GM uses Pollak, which are known to not play well with other brands. The design is just a wire clamp to wire it, which I did with the first one, but trying to get it secured I stripped out the screw. There are no torque specs provided. I’ll move to crimped ring terminals on this one and dial back the torque a bit.
Used as a replacement for original connector that didn't have a positive fit. This one clicks in and provides confidence of a snug fit.

Adapter 4 Pole to 7 Pole and 4 Pole w/Test Lamps
Not too difficult to install, but I would recommend using a car lift so you don't have to work from your back (review includes wiring harness and Brake Controller)
Perfect . My new Subaru hitch has a flat plate to which the dealership attaché the 4-flat. I used “2 L-brackets” to accommodate the 90 degree bend of the adapter bracket.

Pollak 7 Pole to 4 Way Connector Adapter
I wanted one with a LED tester built into it to "trick" my SUV into thinking I had a trailer connected when really it was just a bike rack so the car didn't slam in it's brakes while reversing thinking it was something else. So I bought a different adapter. The picture slightly deceived me into thinking this had LED tester because the plug is attached by a rubber string (that I thought was a wire). So add another picture of the other side and that would eliminate my confusion. 4 stars because it probably works the way 99% of people would want to use it for.
Everything worked out well. On time and fits perfect. Attach hitch setup and my new Ridgeline. It comes with a 2" inch receiver and I have a full compliment of 1.25. stuff from my previous car. All from etrailer i must admit! so I needed the 2-1.25 reducer, a good lock, and the 7-4 reducer for my goodies! Thanks for the grest service

7-Way Molded Connector w/ 10' Cable - Trailer End
As described. Got this one because of the design of the connectors as I’m troubleshooting an issue with wiring. Colors matched the rv-style one I took off my camper. The moulded plug housing is a little shorter than the one that came on the camper so it doesn’t fit in the little storage thing the same way. Functionally seems great.
I upgraded my trailer from hydraulic to electric brakes and rewired everything to neaten and freshen up things. Its a nice piece. I recommend.

Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow Trailer Connector Adapter - 7-Way to 6-Way, 5-Way or 4-Way
My '92 GMC Sierra had a 6-pin trailer harness connector and I'm going to be pulling a pop-up camper in a few weeks that has a 7-pin connector. I originally ordered a 47435 6-Pole to 7-Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter. After thinking about it for a day I changed my mind and ordered a HM48470 Hopkins Endurance Multi-tow 7-way, 5 & 4-wire Flat Connector to mount in the bumper and a HM47570 Hopkins Endurance Multi-tow Connect Adapter - 7-way To 6-way, 5-way and 4-way. The HM48470 will allow me to pull the pop-up as well as giving me the 4-wire flat connector that I need for my boat trailer. I bought the HM47570 adapter just to cover all the trailer wiring needs I might run into. I really like the fact that the 47570 adapter has the quick change plug to cover both wiring arrangements for 6-pin trailer connectors. I placed the original order Saturday evening and the second order Sunday afternoon. Monday morning, I called etrailer.com to try to cancel the first order and was told that both orders were already boxed and on the way the shipper. I had no idea that they had people there to pull and box orders on the weekend. I asked about returning the first order when it arrived and was told by Helen M that it would be no problem at all. I have been extremely pleased with my purchase experience with etrailer.com. Everyone I spoke with there was very knowledgeable and I will not hesitate to go directly to them for my trailer and towing needs in the future.
I needed an adapter for my electrical towing harness so the that I could use a 5-Way connector on my 7-WAY plug. On line, I found and ordered Item No. HM47570 "HOPKINS ENDURANCE MULTI-TOW CONNECTOR ADAPTER - 7-WAY to 6-WAY, 5-WAY or 4-WAY." When I received the product, I was really stoked, it was exactly what I needed and what I had been looking for! I tried it on for "size" as you might say and it's going to work like a charm. I will send some photos later when I'm done with the installation! No time right now. . this coming weekend! Photo 1&2 my connector; Photo 3&4 the new HM47570; Photo 5,6,&8 the light bar I wanted to install and the completed project. Thanks a bunch!

Hopkins Multi-Tow Trailer Connector Adapter - 7-Way to 5-Wire Flat/4-Wire Flat and 12-V Power Socket
Good solid unit that I expect to last a lifetime. I purchased this unit primarily to provide a charging port for a float charger. The idea being that if I forget about it or if someone else drives my truck and is unaware that it is connected, it will easily disconnect when the vehicle is driven away.
Perfect! I use the 4 flat for my boat trailer lights and the +12v I've wired to charge the boat battery as I drive to and from where ever I'm fishing; brilliant!

Adapter 7 Pole to 4 Pole with Tester and Cover
I have ordered several adapters and complete trailer wiring harnesses from Etrailer. All have been top quality. I have saved a lot of money on the plug and play trailer harnesses. Several hundred dollars when they are factory installed, less than $75 from Etrailer.
ETrailer had exactly what I wanted at a fair price. Website was easy to navigate and purchasing was simple. Shipping was fast and I was kept notified right up to when I received my order.

Bargman 7-Way, RV-Style Connector w/ 12' Long Coiled Cable - Trailer End
Excellent addition. I was having an issue with chaffing the straight oem wiring when towing my gooseneck with my F-550. This coiled wire completely eliminated that problem.
This coiled wire connector is a must for travel trailers as the straight one that came with the trailer drug on the road until it wore through on a busy interstate highway and subsequently locked up the brakes at approximately 60 mph. The way it stopped the truck and trailer I thought the transmission exploded. It would not move until I disconnected the trailer batteries. Make sure you order it long enough as I did not twice! E-Trailer was the best at changing my order before shipping and again when I returned one that I still thought was too short. I still can't say enough good things about how they have treated me through multiple times I have ordered things from them,definitely my go to for anything I need for our trailer.....

Hopkins Endurance, Flex-Coil Trailer Connector Adapter - 7-Way to 5-Way or 4-Way Flat with Nite-Glow
Nice product and excellent support from etrailer when I thought it wouldn't work with my 4 pole setup. Thanks Patrick
Great product. We used it with our Toyota 4 runner to tow our boat. Since the Toyota 4 runner electrical plug in is so far behind the rear bumper, we needed this extension in order for there not to be any issues with the wiring for boat trailer to become disconnected from being too short. The cord being coiled allows the extension to be as long as needed without possibly being drug on the ground.

Hopkins 7-Way RV Style Trailer Connector w/ LED Test Lights - Trailer End
Easy to wire and very convenient indicator lights. Only thing to be aware of is the power light will stay lit if your trailer has a battery (e.g. a camper) and so it will put a small drain on it. Not really consequential if you're properly taking care of your battery anyway (disconnect or trickle charge when not in use).
This connecter was very easy to install, and the LED display is a great addition.
