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!
this connector along with the short L bracket and the mount bracket- gave me a nice connector to my hitch. Though I used the short connector and did have to slightly bend it to allow the 4 to 7 pole connector to fit. If Id bought the long L bracket-- It could have worked-- but bending a little worked well.

Tow Ready 4 Pole to 5 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter
Simple and easy to use; just plug it in and connect it to the trailer harness. Works like a charm!
Not installed yet but looks as good as one used before in a former vehicle. The actual adapter I received is "Reese", which is a reputable brand for towing accessories.

Hopkins 6-Way Connector with Jacketed Cable - Trailer End - 8' Long
The plug was missing the set screw and collar that compresses on the cable to prevent strain on the connectors when removing the plug. You can see the set screw clearly in the product picture.
I like this style of plug because it is molded and is important in keeping water out of the plug. It is conveint because it has the right colored wires. I have a water tight termination box with studs that it is wired into. Once I damaged the cable so I opened up the terminal box installed eyelet lugs on the spare pigtail, and installed it in a fiew minuets. I keep a spare on hand with lugs on it so if I have an accident I can quickly replace it. I also use these on some of my smaller tow behind equipment. that's why I like this size plug it isn't real bulky.

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

Pollak 7 Pole to 4 Way Connector Adapter
This adapter plugs in to the OEM receptacle without any excessive effort and the flat 4 pin connector on my utility trailer also plugs into the adapter without any excessive effort. As a bonus there is a cover for the 4 pin side of the adapter to protect it the elements when not in use.
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.

Hopkins 7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector - 11' Long
Sold the trailer,so did not use. Was not able to return,because it was electrical. No hard feelings.
Love the molded design, notice the wires are different colors from standard trailer wiring, but work great.

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.
This was my original, but the pins got pushed out the back, so I tried another popular brand, only to find the all-metal assembly put the possibility of the wires shorting out within the "risky" category, so I went back to the non-metallic part, which won't "short" out and cause a problem. Fingers & toes.

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.
Product so far has worked great for a pinched/cut OEM 7pin cord. It isnt weatherproof like an OEM connector to the cord-as well as the female end of the connector but then its just the connector so totally sealed is not the design for this. It works fine & currently has saved me from having to purchase a connector & wire cord as 1 piece & some shennagins with installing that set up.

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.
I looked at so many options before deciding on the B&W hitch, but I have no regrets buying it. There is nothing that my car is suitable for towing that this thing can’t accommodate. I even use it on the front hitch of my mower to move trailers around the yard! Adjusts very easily and stows nicely (though on my Ford Edge it rides lower than I like when stowed).

Hopkins Endurance Flex Trailer Connector Adapter w/ LED Circuit Tester - 6-Pole to 4-Pole
Perfect just what id hope for . the circuit tester was an added bonus. indicated left turn signal not working
Choosing the correct connector for my pop-up camper and F 150 baffled me before I asked etrailer for help. I got that help, bought the etrailer connector, and it worked like a charm. The lube that came with the connector was an unexpected bonus. Many thanks.

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.
It’s nice to have an inexpensive replacement part rather than buying another whole harness!

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.

Pollak Heavy-Duty, 4-Pole, Round Pin Socket, Concealed Terminals - Chrome - Vehicle End
Wiring harness and flat tow bracket to be able to tow our new Wrangler behind our motorhome. Product arrived on time and everyone was most pleasent to deal with. had the bracket installed by the dealre we bought the Wrangler from as part of that deal and then did the wiring ourselves. Pretty weasy thanks to the excellent video provided by etrailer and it took us rookies about 3 hours to complete. we are very happy with the service and product. Thanks to all. Regards,
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.

Pollak Heavy-Duty, 4-Pole, Round Pin Trailer Wiring Connector - Chrome - Trailer End
What can you say about a 4 pin connector, It was what I needed and it was a good price.
Originally Ordered 2 of the Pollak 11-402EPas I thought they would fit in the 910030-1 Female Connectors I ordered at the same time. Found out they didn't and had to order 2 of the 11-409P. They work just fine but now I am stuck with the others.

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.
The Roadmaster 4 wire connector is very good quality to connect my vehicle to motorhome.

Custer Trailer Connector Adapter - 4-Way Round to 4-Way Flat
Great product, just what I ordered. I couldn’t find this adapter anywhere else until I came upon it at etrailer.com!! I have ordered other products from etrailer and have been completely satisfied with those products as well. Thanks.
ITEM ON ROUND END WAS LARGER THAN ROUND SOCKET ON TOW VEHICLE. DIDN’T FIT.
