Hopkins 7-Way RV Style Connector with Molded Cable - Trailer End - 8' Long - RV Standard
The plug is different from original cord. Doesn’t look as good but we’ll see how it works. 1st new cord
It's a bundle of wires with a plug. Hard to make this type of part special above other brands. Price is the big factor. Not quite sure why this one is 50% less cost than some others. But works as expected. Solved the dreaded taillights blinking while traveling on the road.

7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector - 3' Long
I've had this in use for over a year and they don't build them like they use to. I use this on a gooseneck trailer and the piece of plastic behind the spade connector for the clearance lights and brakes has melted, allowing the spade connector to lose contact with the plug on the pickup. So the lights would cut off in the middle of the night and would have to wiggle the connection till I could fix it. I have an older Hopkins plug and never had this problem. To fix the problem I ended up putting pieces of thin copper wire behind the spade and have done it twice since the plastic melted a 2nd time and once again the trailer clearance lights would quit working. Attached are before and after pictures.
Customer service was great, I called for help connecting the 7-way and they walked me through it. Shipping could be better

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.
It served its purpose to convert 4 connection to 7 connection to make it compatible with Toyota 7 connection set up diagram which is different than many American or other 7 point connection. Thank you E-Trailer . 5 stars and it's working just fine 1 year out from installing.

Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow Twist-Mount 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector - Vehicle End
Nice product. Kind of a sloppy fit for my factory 2005 Avalanche hitch though. The 7 pin connector doesn't pin out correct but the 4 pin does so I'll go with that.
Exactly what I needed and wanted. Perfect fit for this 17 year old vehicle. Works well with my trailers. Installation was a breeze!

Pollak Replacement 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector Socket - Vehicle End
Didn't use it, because it's a replacement for my truck, that doesn't need replacing yet. Wanted a connector for the MH and this woundn't work, will save for later use.
Excellent replacement!

7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector, 6' Long
I received a 5' cable, not a 6' one. Which really upsets me as it pretty much means I can not use the EZ Connector Pogo Trailer Cable Holder I also purchased to hold the cable up out of the way of the pivoting hitch. Other then that, the connector is molded on, so that is good.
The quality of the materials for this wire connector is very high, especially the insulation on the wires. One thing to note is the wire colors do not match the standard colors associated with this style of 7-Way plug. Definitely use a continuity tester to determine which wire goes to which blade in the plug. Other than that, this is a good product for the price.

Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector - Vehicle End
I backed through a low spot and dragged my original connector through the dirt, damaging the 4-pin connector. This new Hopkins trailer connector is an exact match for the original connector on my Lippert hitch. Installation was quick and easy. Dielectric grease is included. The construction quality for this connector seems to be great. I wish all of my RV repairs were this easy!
I made it fit. Drilled holes in bumper and connected it the the factory harness! Voila!

7-Way Molded Trailer End with 6' Cable - HD Blue Insulated
The bargman 7 way moulded trailer end is a high quality unit. I have been using it for a year now and it has performed flawlessly. The sturdy moulded plug ensures no moisture can get inside. Both the insulation of the individual wires and also the outer sheath are made of silicone and remain flexible even at canadian winter temperatures. There is just one way I think the unit could be improved. The outer blue silicone coating is thin, and not very abrasion resistant. If it contacts the grouns at all, it will quickly wear through. Just a little thicker sheath would be nice. Overall I am very happy with my purchase, and would certainly purchase again
Good quality. Super flexible which is what I was looking for.

35 Ft 4-Way Trailer Wiring Harness - Wishbone Style - 42" Ground
Worked out well.
2 things. 1st@: I think there should be an option to pick tinned wire. 2nd: The ring terminal for the ground needs to be bigger.

20 Ft 4-Way Trailer Wiring Harness - Wishbone Style - 30" Ground
Just what I needed for my home-built bike carrier. My wife rides an e-tricycle and by the time I loaded the trike and a couple of bikes on this platform, you could not see the car's taillights or blinkers. This harness worked perfectly!
Used this to rewire a 6 x 10 trailer. Inserted the wire through 3 feet of metal conduit to keep it from being damaged near the coupling. So now the only exposed wire is the ¼ inch right at the connector.

Hopkins Endurance 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector - Trailer End - Ergonomic Design
I rewired my light bar for my boat trailer with the items I purchased. Before I built the the light bar, every time I used my boat trailer I would waste valuable sailing or fishing time repairing faulty lights. The do not last long when you submerge them in salt water. This light bar now version 3.0 have given little trouble over the years
Great product. Works well when I had a broken connection on my 4 way plug end on my light-up hitch cover I bought from y'all a while back. Always a happy customer. Thanks, George.

Pollak Black Plastic, 7-Pole, RV Blade-Style Trailer Socket - Vehicle End
Works great as an adapter. I used it to convert a truck camper electrical harness to a Lance camper receptacle.
Hooked up only 12 volt for charging the battery on my dump trailer. Works fine.

Hopkins 7-Way RV Style Connector w/ Molded Cable and LED Test Lights - Trailer End - 8' Long
The wire colors are not correct for their functions. I thought I was going crazy, until I got out my test light and continuity tester. The LEDs on the plug are correct, but the corresponding wires are not. White (ground), Black (12v power), and Blue (E-brakes), were the only three that were correct, all 4 other colors were totally wrong for the function location. I had to continuity trace each one in order to determine what it should be hooked up to. The quality of the plug and wire seems great, but the wrong color wires are in the wrong locations on the trailer plug.
This led trailer connector is the best... Always know what's working and what's not.

Hopkins Endurance Metal Trailer Connector - 7-Pole RV Style - Trailer End
I am enclosing 2 photos of trailer connector I purchased from etrailer. I have a 1995 Dutchman popup trailer. It had a 6 way round connector which would not fit my 2010 F150. By using your trailer connector diagrams, I was able to determine Dutchman was using white for the ground, blue for brakes, black for battery, brown for right turn/brake, red for left turn/brake, and green for tail lights. I replaced the 6 way with your 7 way connector.
Absolutely horrible to wire up. There is not enough room in the pistol grip for the six wires. Worst plug wire up experience ever.

Hopkins 7-Way RV Style Trailer Connector with Nite-Glow - Trailer End
Good product good price I used etrailer when I was building trailers for my personal use.good service and fast shipping I recommend them for all trailer owners and builders
Horrible product, the plastic is weak. After tightening the screws the thin red plastic cover cracked. This definitely would not hold up in a camping environment. If the plug were to hit the ground from a fall or be dropped inadvertently the thin red shell would crack. I decided to replace the 8ft section of cord from the junction box on the trailer. With a Bargman molded 7 way trailer cable.

Hopkins 7-Way RV Style Connector w/ Molded Cable and LED Test Lights - Trailer End - 6' Long
Was exactly what I was looking for. I have a new website for when I need items for my trailer
I've installed a LOT of wiring harnesses on trailers, made pigtails for the truck to trailer and am generally happy with Hopkins quality products. BUT I am not happy that this pigtail uses colors for the wires that are NOT universally standard. IF I had hooked this up by the proper color code, it would not have worked. IF there had been a color code provided with the cable it would have been an easier installation. As it was I had to wring out each one separately. On a positive note, the LEDs are a nice touch.

7-Way Round RV Style Trailer Connector - Trailer Side
This 7 pin connector replace the original connector that came on my camper that was not connecting good. This new one snaps in much better and does not come loose. I works very well.
I like the features and build quality but should have done more research. It took three tries to get the wiring right. The product ships with 0 documentation. I downloaded a diagram off the web but misunderstood the orientation of the plug and wired it wrong twice before figuring it out. I’m old fashioned and expect instructions included. The etrailer online video did not show the inside or how to open/wire it. This is also my first attempt at trailer wiring. Work over a tarp- the parts are fiddly and you will drop a few. The connections are set up for bare wire or 0 & U shaped crimp terms.

Hopkins Endurance Quick-Install 7-Way Trailer Connector - Vehicle End
Worked fine, no problems at all!!!
Tossed a shovel in the bed of my pickup and busted the outer cover off of my electrical connection for my cabover camper. Replaced the cover for under $20 vs buying a whole new plug. Fit perfectly and highly recommend. Thanks for your help Nichole!

Pollak HD, 7-Pole Round Pin Connector w/Cable Guard
Great connector.
Plug arrived on time and as described. I replaced a farm implement electric plug and was better than the original!

7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector, 4' Long
Looks well made and what I like most and why I bought this one was because of the newer style plug that comes in it. I have yet to test it out but I got it wired up.
Well, my first impression of this item is it is very sturdy and will be a great addition to my trailer.
