It's not the right connector. Different pin configuration on this porsche
See photo attached
This adapter worked exactly as described! I wanted to retain the original connector on my imported Land Rover Defender and this worked great.
Got this for my 1980 Austrian Pinzgauer 710 that has the 7 pin EU style plug and a 24v system. I’ve got several US trailers with LED lights that work perfectly with this plug. The LEDs seem to handle the 24 volts ok saving me the hassle of having to relamp incandescent lights. This has been far easier than building a plug from scratch, I would however like to have a seven pin EU to pin US for my heavier trailers with brakes. I’ll probably end up building one but for my light towing this is a great solution.
Great fit and well made.
Received product in good order, well packaged, initial some delay, manufacturer was chased by etrailer, and earlier dispatched by manufacturer; delivery trail clear stated, very good. On receiving verified at UHAUL: connect with 1983 Land Rover (Defender) 110 Stationwagon (photo: rear, while on transport): all functioned ok. Apparently some diode(s) included, as the 7 pin has individual stop light which translates as left AND right indicator on flat pin. Emergency flashing (all indicators left and right) tested ok at UHAUL (connecting to trailer). LR has European homologated 3.5 metric Ton (7700 lbs) tow hook and has done some 60,000+ miles towing with current odometer reading 578,000+ km (on/about 360k miles)
Exactly what I needed to tow my utility trailer with Mercedes Swiss Army "Jeep-like" vehicle. My G-Wagon has the European round 7-pin trailer jack and this adapter was the solution I was looking for. Quick delivery and a very reasonable price.

12222 - This adapter has worked out great for my needs. Highly recommend!
This product worked perfectly for my application. I have a 2014 Mahindra 5010 tractor with a European type socket for a trailer. This adapter allowed me to go from the European type socket to my standard 4 pin flat plug on my trailer. Thank you Etrailer for supporting a wide variety of applications.

I have the same situation, but my tractor turn signals are separate from the brake lights. Does it still work? Did you have to rewire anything? Thanks.Mary

No wiring necessary. Plugs into the flat 4 pin then directly into the tractor socket. Used my trailer for a hayride during Halloween this year. Worked great.
I have a Mahindra tractor with this plug and I want to pull a trailer with lights.
Plugged right in and it works great. Good quality plug.

only used a couple times a year, so its still in great shape.
This item was extremely difficult to find, there was not one in my state that I live in, I was very pleased to find and ordered it with a quick delivery and was exactly what I needed for my rare vehicle, easy to install and the explanations on the Internet site were perfectly easy to obtain, Follow, review and make a decision quickly.

Great works good. Good quality
I drove everywhere in town to find this adaptor for my Land Rover Discovery with no luck. Then found it with ease on this site. Fits perfectly. Thank you.

Perfect fit. Thx
I initially called etraier to ask if this would fit my make and model (96 European model C250 Diesel Mercedes). The etrailer rep said it would not fit.
After some further online research, all evidence supported this adapter would in fact work. Despite the reps advice I purchased it (very easy to do with etrailer site). It arrived quickly and upon testing it with my car and trailer it worked like a charm! I don't use it very often, but it's a year now and I've had no troubles with it.
Product is good, what really helped me though was their customer support. My 91 Land Rover had the 7-pin euro plug and the wiring does not convert through this connector. I had to get an extra converter which they carried in stock as well. Thanks to their help all worked about great.
This product was exactly as promised and is the perfect product for converting my Land Rover Defender European style 7-pin to a U.S. style 4-pin. Additionally, the professionals at etrailer were quick to respond and answered my questions fully and provided schematics to back it up. I cannot tell you how impressed I am with etrailer.
Works great on my Land Rover- Quality is better than you would expect at this price, and certainly all I need for my occasional towing.

Thanks for following up! Its fantastic- no problems at all. I updated my review a bit. Its a darn shame I only put 4 stars- I must have made a mistake. Its definitely a five :
Great service and followup. Unfortunately, although the part was for a Land Rover, it did not fit my Land Rover Discovery 98. I'll just have to hardwire the trailer connector myself. It's too bad that there is not an adapter for the trailer plug on my Discovery.
I have an Audi and wanted to add a tow bar and wiring for a trailer. It came with a 13 pin plug. After a lot of searching, an exchange came up on etrailer.com that provided a means of using adapters rather than doing the hard wiring. They also sold the part I needed (this one) at a great price.
Bought the trailer wiring adapter for my 99 range rover. Works great and much less hassle than having to rewire. I would recommend etrailer for any vehicle connectors. I've been very pleased with the quality and the price. Thanks a lot.
I bought a european style tow plug for my sidexside from etrailer never seen or even heard of one but etrailer had it ! Ordered it easy process received it quickly and the quality was awesome ! Thanks etrailer i will always order from you In the future those hard to find quality products you carry!
Exactly what I needed and at a price that wasn’t offered anywhere else. Shipping was fast, product was perfect, and everything went on without a hitch (pun intended).

Excellent
I just purchased a VW Tristar Syncro Transporter, #247 of 500, with an original european trailer lighting connection (7 prong). This adapter was clearly pictured and described on the etrailer site and it works perfectly. The price was fair and the quality appears good. All lights work!
I needed an adapter for my trailer wiring that would connect a European style 7 round pin connector to an American style 4 flat pin connector. Went to several local trailer retailers and trailer installers who couldn’t help me. I found a supplier on the web, but the cost for the part was $125.00. Then I found e-trailer, thank God, they had the connector I needed for $20.00. They shipped it to me free and I had it in three days. Works great. Thank you.
I got the adapter and plugged it into my Land Rover. I noticed the plug had loose prongs. When I tried to unplug, the outer cover came off and had to pull with the wires to unplug it. Very flimsy and cheap construction. I am planing to return it.
Great build quality, but unfortunately it will not work to legally use a 4-pin trailer being towed by a 7-pin Euro/Land Rover plug. Its simply mapping 4 of the 7 pins to the following pins on the 4-pin side. Left running, Right running, Stop and negative, there is no provision for indicators or dual sided brake lights. It needs diodes (which it does not have) to do this. etrailer just needs to update the description as this is a good basis to make various adapters.
Perfect fit for my 2004 Volvo XC70 factory installed trailer hook up. Very reasonable shipping cost and fast delivery. Very pleased. Thanks

How cool! I had never heard of a Pinzgauer and I just googled it. Very cool! Have you had to do a lot of work on yours? If you ever felt like sending in pictures, it would be neat to see!
