Pollak 6-Pole, Round Pin, Plastic Trailer Wiring Socket w/ Rubber Boot - Vehicle End
Used on tow vehicle for hooking up wiring harness to motorhome
This part is an exact replacement to the part that failed. The failure was caused by a poor installation which allowed the rubber boot to chaff on the truck frame. As it was an exact replacement installation was straight forward although I modified the mounting bracket to prevent a reoccurrence of the problem.

Pollak Heavy-Duty, 4-Pole, Round Pin Trailer Wiring Socket - Metal - Vehicle End
I've got that trailer that has had one tough life. Yep, hundreds of gigs, PA and sound equipment rolling in and out, the heat, the cold, the sun, rain, and snow. Chicks, guitar players and drummers, you know, all the things that beat the hell out of a drum! Thank the music Gods for etrailer.com! The place to remedy the ills that trailers need in times of harsh environments, tough crowds, tin-ear'd musicians, and you ain't nothing but Hound Dogs!
I've never really liked Flat-4 type connectors. Unless you leave them dangling, they usually require that you crawl under the vehicle to connect them. (...Murphy's Law dictates that this will always be when it's raining or snowing). This Pollak 4-pole round socket, along with a Tow-Ready harness, and matching trailer connector, provides a neat, factory installed look, that's more convenient, and durable. My orders from etrailer arrived quickly, and with great seller communication. A+

RoadMaster 6-Wire Trailer Connector - Vehicle End
This is a piece of junk….one of the male plugs was broken and I checked the current on the others and no current passed through from one side of the plug to the other. Complete Junk….do not buy this product. I ended up going to [store] and getting a curt plug that worked just fine.
I explained to Roger (I believe was his name) that I have a Blue Ox tow bar and base plate, The base plate was installed along with the wiring kit, but did not include the wire to go from the front of the grill to the interior of my Jeep to plug in my RVi brake, and this is what he sent me. I'm attaching a picture of what I have on my vehicle. Not only was it the completely wrong part, but it arrived in damaged packaging which I did not open. Please send return instructions.

Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow 7-, 5- and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector - Vehicle End - Ergonomic Design
Installed the Hopkins muti-tow 7, 5, and 4 way flat connector this morning. I ripped the original connector that was attached to the bottom of the hitch receiver off when I was 4-wheeling into the Doll House campgrounds in the Maze District of Canyonlands a month ago. So, I cut a hole in the bumper and mounted the new Hopkins connector, cut off the old broken connector mounting bracket, and connected the factory wiring to the new Hopkins device. Hopkins product installed easily, looks great, is now out of the way, and has the flexibility of multiple trailer connectors when required. I am pleased with the product. Attached is a photo.
Exactly what we had been looking for. Now I can hook up multiple trailers with different connectors and all the electrics on each trailer works. I mounted mine directly to the receiver hitch frame. The biggest challenge for us was routing the backup wire from the taillight housing, through the body of the truck to the connector. the rest went together fairly easily. Seems to be pretty solid and looks much better than the loose pigtail connector it replaced.

The stuff not here
Very difficult to make the wiring connections, I was afraid I’d have problems on down the road so, I took it out of circuit and threw it away

RoadMaster 4-Wire Connector - Vehicle End
We just finished a makeover of our 1995 boat trailer. New bunks, sanded and painted but the best part of the project was the new LED lights from your company. They are so much brighter than the old incandescent bulbs that you really do feel safer driving down the road. We pulled the 20 year old wire out and replaced with new and used the 3M scotch loks to tie in. We were not sure the new style grommets would fit the old holes in the frame but they fit great. Your customer service was great, alerting me to a backordered reflector but recommended a replacement that worked fine. Patrick set up a Q&A page for me since I had questions about the best way to protect connections with dielectric grease, heat shrink and tape. Your website is one of the best with ease of navigation, complete pictures, great selection and thorough info, dimensions, etc. You guys really have your act together and also offer great value. I would not hesitate to purchase again and will recommend you when I can. I have attached a couple of pictures. Thanks for all your help. Wayne N.
Easy to install and works great.

Pollak 6-Pole, Round Pin, Trailer Wiring Socket - Exposed Terminals w/ Rubber Boot -Vehicle End
Used this as the connection point for the Roadmaster diode wiring kit. Seems to be well made and will hopefully last a long time. I did spray paint it flat black so it blends into the front bumper of my “toad” a little better.
Base plate and all hardware worked well and fit like a glove, instructions were easy to understand great product

Excellent Quick Delivery When you are driving a Test or NASCAR Hauler you need replacement parts very quick, just like a pit stop. Thank You very much for the rapid delivery. Mint Moore III Ford Performance Race Hauler Driver
A great little heavy duty plug that I use to connect my car to the rv when towing 4 down.

Pollak Heavy-Duty, 4-Pole, Round Pin Socket, Concealed Terminals - Chrome - Vehicle End
Items were simply “thrown in the box” WITH the hitch which was not secured properly. Heavy hitch then bounced around on electrical connectors, destroying them. Components should have been fastened to the hitch as the hardware kit was with strong tape instead of just thrown into the box by somebody! Refund issued.
Product arrived on time and as described. I used this for setting up our 2014 Wrangler Unlimited Sahara for a flat tow. Mounting hole spacing @ 2" o/c didn't match our Blue Ox 1126 draw bar so I fabricated my own intermediate bracket, polished it to aircraft tooling standards, then lacquered it before final assembly. I think the finished product came out nice.

Hopkins Endurance 7-Way Trailer Connector Socket - Vehicle End - Ergonomic Design
Well I wasn't able to use this as there was no good place to install on my car without it practically dragging. Not a product problem at all. I tried to return and customer service was fast and super helpful... unfortunately return shipping would eat up any refund. So.. I get to keep it. good quality and product. Very happy with it and wish I could use it. Will keep it for sometime in the future when of course I will need it.
I do not recommend this product. I bought this for my truck. It seems to be the nicest looking plug on the market but after the first rain, the plug was filled with water. I changed the location from the hitch to the bumper and once again the plug was filled with water after it rained. This condition will obviously lead to terminals corroding and/or wires being shorted out. I have bought a different style plug, unfortunately the same brand but hopefully I will have better luck. May be able to drill a small drain hole in the casing to allow water to escape but shouldn't have to do this on a new product.

Hopkins Endurance Quick-Fix Replacement 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector w LED Test Lights - Vehicle End
I recently had a need for the Hopkins Endurance Quick-Fix Replacement 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector w LED Test Lights - Vehicle End - HM48190 to replace the faulty one on my van. It was easy to find what I needed on the site and the price was comparable to other sites I had visited. I decided to go with etrailer because I had previously ordered the hitch through them. I appreciated the fact that an email was sent out confirming that they received the order as well as a follow-up email telling me that the part was shipped along with providing the tracking number. The installation of the part was easy and took no time to complete. Overall it was a fine experience and if I need to order anything in the future, I will be sure to come back and order from etrailer.
Great product. Easy to install
What our customers are saying:
"WOW! I am impressed! I called to place my order and real person answered, spoke perfect English, albeit a slight southern accent, and my order was sent within a day, shipped quickly and I had it a few days later. I saved over a hundred dollars over local and installed it my self. I cant imagine how that they could do any better. THANKS!"
