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.

Pollak Heavy-Duty, 4-Pole, Round Pin Trailer Wiring Socket - Metal - Vehicle End
Heavy built. Very much wish it had a cable clamp on the backside similar to its male equivalent. As it is all the strain on the wiring/cable is supported by the terminals themselves.
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!

Pollak Black Plastic, 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector - Trailer End
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.
Used to make a test lead when trouble shooting new GM trailer brake controller and kept as spare.

Pollak 6-Pole, Round Pin, Plastic Wiring Socket w/ Rubber Boot - Vehicle End
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.
Decent enough plug. It was an easy install. I would have liked to have allen screws to get a good bite, but will check the connections after a use or two.

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.

Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow 7-, 5- and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector - Vehicle End - Ergonomic Design
Love the compact size for both 7way and 5/4 way connections. Install was pretty easy. The wire instructions are for a traditional 7 way color code. Would be nice if they included a RV color code and heavy duty. But just a multi meter or cross reference with your wires manual is all that's needed. I did not give 5 stars because I did not like the 2 flimsy hook connection to attach the wire shield backing to the connector. I reinforced with some black tape because it was sperated. Also would have liked if the 5/4 way door was spring loaded just like the 7 way. I mounted my connection sideways to use gravity to help keep that flap close.
Heavy duty constructed is definitely a plus there are a couple shortcomings that I was surprised to see.. first off for it to be truly waterproof where the cable enters the back of the plug needs to be more waterproof. Also stainless steel screws were not used and I just don't understand why they are selling a product that cannot stand up to the test of time and these are two rather inexpensive improvements that can be made.

RoadMaster 6-Wire Trailer Connector - Vehicle End
Note to self: Always push brake pedal firmly before releasing parking brake. especially when Jeep is slightly uphill from Blue Ox tow bar. :-) This was a very quick fix, (unfortunately not quick enough, the wife saw me before I could hide it) maybe took 10 minutes total. A socket set and a small phillips screwdriver are all I needed for this replacement.
Works, kind of wish it could have been placed in a different location

Pollak 6-Pole, Round Pin, Trailer Wiring Connector - Trailer End
The person who helped me find the correct part went above and beyond just taking my order and helping me find the correct part. Now I know why my dad suggested that I try etrailer to find the part I needed.
Perfect replacement

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 7-Way Trailer Connector Socket - Vehicle End - Ergonomic Design
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.
I bought this socket for my 2006 Volvo Xc90 to wire in the 4-Pole harness I also purchased from etrailer. Already had a few 7 Blade to 4-Pole adapters from my previous vehicle, and wanted the option of adding a trailer brake wire for a small camper later on so that was the main reason for the purchase. It also went very well with the Hidden Hitch I had already installed, bracket mounted right up to the existing tabs on the hitch. Super quick and easy install, as all of my etrailer purchases have been. Looks great on the truck, and functions great with the 180 Degree cover.

7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector, 6' Long
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.
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.

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.
Very sturdy and secure attachment, much better than the cheaper plastic ones that I have had break before. However, the rubber boot doesn't stay around the wire attachments

RoadMaster 4-Wire Connector - Vehicle End
The Roadmaster 4 wire connector is very good quality to connect my vehicle to motorhome.
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.

Hopkins Endurance Quick-Install 7-Way Trailer Connector with Universal Pigtail Harness - Vehicle End
Overall, I was very impressed by this connector. I used it as an in-bed connector for my gooseneck trailers. The plug seems to be a quality product, engineered to stand up to some abuse. I like how the mounting bolt heads recess into the connector and also how the bottom of the connector is elongated to help support the weight of the plug and wiring. I think it has a great shot at lasting for a very long time. The hinge is predominately plastic that will not corrode and break like the many I've had in the past.
Purchased Rv trailer socket for "in bed" installation in my Ram truck. Installation went smoothly and etrailer videos were most helpful in visualizing the install. Product works as described and ordering and delivery were on schedule. Thanks for the great service!

Pollak Replacement 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector Socket - Vehicle End
Installed and tested and seems to work perfectly. To be perfectly honest, my vehicle was NOT on the list of those that this part will fit. But I saw on another post elsewhere that someone had had success with this and I thought it was worth the gamble. I just installed this myself in about 20 minutes, thanks to a YouTube video. The dealer is quoting 70 bucks for this part plus installation which I heard can be as much as $200 more. I just did it myself in 20 minutes for $18. Thank you so much. Check out my pics.
Packaged very well and delivered when expected. No defects noted with this products condition. I have not mounted the connector on the truck yet or operationally tested it but there's nothing to lead me to believe that it wouldn't perform as advertised.

7-Way Molded Connector w/ 10' Cable - Trailer End
The product was exactly what I had hoped for, a high quality exact replacement for the one that I had that was 17 years old. It arrived when it was supposed to and was easy to install.
Quality product, reliable shipping. Will continue doing business with them.

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.
