Navigating the complexities of vehicle wiring for towing can be daunting. The Hopkins Plug-In Simple Wiring Harness is your hassle-free solution. This custom-fit harness seamlessly connects to your vehicle's pre-installed tow package wiring, eliminating the need for cutting or splicing. Simply locate the connection point in your rear cargo area and plug it in, and you're ready to go!
When you're ready to hook up your trailer, flexibility is essential. The Hopkins harness provides a 4-way flat trailer connector compatible with 5-pole, 6-pole, and 7-pole adapters (sold separately). Whether you're towing small trailers or large ones with advanced electrical needs, this harness has the versatility to adapt.
No one wants their gear to succumb to the elements. Engineered with sturdy protective connection terminals that resist corrosion, this wiring harness also includes a dust cap, cable ties, and a terminal grease packet for reliable long-lasting connections.
Installing trailer wiring can seem intimidating, but with this harness, you get straightforward and easy directions. Stow the connector neatly underneath your vehicle near the hitch, and use a small amount of dielectric grease on all connections to prevent corrosion. It’s an effortless way to ensure durability and smooth operation every time you tow.
Ensuring your trailer's signal lights work correctly is crucial for safety on the road. This harness guarantees your trailer's lights flash synchronously with your vehicle's indicators, so you can turn, brake, and change lanes confidently.
This harness is designed to integrate smoothly with vehicles equipped with a factory tow package. It's a tailor-made fit for models like the Toyota Highlander, ensuring you get all the functionality of towing-ready wiring without the need to visit a service center.

The wiring is fine and is correct, but this 2009 Highlander that I bought it for needs a converter box and trailer fuse as well. This info wasn’t available on the etrailer website. I had to search YouTube and some forums to figure out why my brand new wiring harness wasn’t working. I then had to find and purchase the converter separately. It would be nice if the info was readily available on etrailer. I think U-Haul was actually where I found the instructional video on how to do the converter box. Etrailer should definitely not put customers in a situation where they need to go to their direct competitors website for info
Needed better instructions on install for my vehicle. Had to call for support help that was unsure himself. Wiring access was in compartment with spare tire. Had to remove for access. Once access the wiring was easy.
This wire fit perfectly in my 2019 Highlander but I was never able to use it. I didn't realize that I needed the factory tow package for this to work, the label wasn't on the listing at that time. I ended up having to purchase one without the factory two option.
I installed this product on the Toyota Highlander I inherited from my sisters estate. I purchased a 5' x 8' trailer to pull behind it. I discovered the wiring harness was too corroded to work. Found Hopkins Custom Fit wiring harness on-line, it installed easily and works well. I just keep the harness in the back of the car and feed it out the back hatch to connect to the trailer. Works good!
Connectors match factory harness on my 2015 Highlander, but, of course, it is missing the strain relief, protection and gromet. External flat plug is an exact match so it will fit the factory bracket, but the plastic mount (HM48595) they make for this is better, just get a couple of stainless steel screws and nuts to attach it and you won't have a rusted mess like the factory bracket. I ended up splicing the external plug onto my factory harness to replace the factory plug with a broken off ground pin. This seemed the simplest way to keep all the factory strain relief, etc. Would have preferred the splice not be under the car, but I'm hoping adhesive lined heat shrink will protect the solder joints adequately.
So easy. and I found a useful [online] video. I love that I can leave the wires in the storage compartment inside the car and just run it under the weather stripping on the rare occasions when I need it. Trailer wires have always tended to get rusted out in my experience. super easy!
Perfect fit for Toyota Highlander. Easy to install.
Easy enough to install. Turns out I did need the light control module (dealer gave me bad info)
harness was plug and play and install was easy. One trick I would says is just remove the plastic base trim at the door latch and then lift up the storage tray to get the plug. No need to remove the whole tray and such.
This wiring harness came in really fast as well with the hitch but I made the mistake and ordered the wrong one so I'll be returning it for a refund. I don't expect any issues with that either!
I have received two orders from etrailer and have been extremely pleased with their responsiveness...fastest I have ever seen for this type of product. I would recommend everybody to use "etrailer" for items they need. Ron Buske
