Plug-and-play custom harness gets turn and brake signals on your towed car with no hardwiring or splicing, and no effect on your warranty. The built-in diodes protect your car from electrical feedback.
Features:
Notes:
A combined lighting system, or 2-wire system, uses the same light bulb to signal both braking and turning. (In other words, the car signals a turn by flashing the brake light.)
A separate lighting system, or 3-wire system, has the brake signal and the turn signal light up independently of each other. Typically, the turn signal is amber.
To keep the separate lighting system on your car functioning properly while you're flat towing, add a wiring converter (118158 - sold separately) and 2 additional diodes.
If the engine is off and your car's brake lights illuminate when you press the brake pedal, you need to install a brake light relay (RM-88400 - sold separately) with this kit. Without a relay, your car's brake signal will override the turn signal sent by the RV when you are slowing down to make a turn, creating a potentially dangerous situation. Other drivers will see that you're slowing down, but not that you're making a turn. With a brake light relay, you can signal both and travel safely.

The parts I purchased to ei my jeep for towing were easy to install got the tow bar adapter but somewhat difficult or the wiring harness. Passenger side rear lights on my 2005 Tj were behind the charcoal filers in the rear fender and required a lot of work to access.
Pretty easy install on my 06 Jeep Wrangler. Watch the videos and it will all make sense for install. Had plenty of wire to reach. A stiff wire for fishing the wires across my fuel tank made the job easy.
Great system! Plug and play, works as it should.
Works well!
Installed on an 02 Jeep Wrangler. Installation was as easy as following instructions. Works great. Highly recommended.
Alex at etrailer you are the best.
Easy install, works great. Simple route to operate taillights on the toad without draining it’s battery since power comes from the RV.
This was a breeze to install!! About 30 min and I had working lights on my Jeep and was ready to hook it up behind my motorhome. Price was great too. Stopped at my local RV dealer and he said he could get me a wiring kit for $250! Saw this one online for $50 bucks and took a chance. Sure glad I did! Disconnect a couple of plugs, plug in new harness, route the wires to the front and BOOM! Ready for the trip! Thanks guys!
Wasn't working called etrailer and they helped solve the issue it's working great. Thanks Etrailer.
Easy to install ! About an hour! Used some split flexible wire protection ( not included with purchase) Would recommend a 5ft 4 pole flat trailer connector extension when using a tow bar!
Very good and easy to install
Everything worked out fine
Product did not work.
I was looking for a wiring harness to tow my 2000 Jeep Wrangler. I watched a YouTube vidio sponsored by you guys. The video recommended the Hopkins wiring harness. I ordered it, it came with in 3 days as promised and was extremely simple to install!!! Love a company that that delivers what it advertises!!! Thanks again!!!

Easy installation, plug and play, plenty of wire to reach everything
Easy plug and play. I cut the 4pin connector off and wired a 6 pin socket with battery caharge line to be compatible with my tow vehicle and other TOADS

Used with my 2002 Jeep Wrangler. Works well.
This wiring harness was exactly what I was looking for so that I could tow my jeep behind my RV. No cutting, just plug and play (er I mean tow). There was plenty of extra wiring at the front end so that I could route through the engine bay and mount under the front bumper so it was out of site but easily accessible. Worked perfectly!
Quality product, purchased a year ago. Installed in my Jeep in roughly 30 min give or take. The directions were easy to read and understand. I highly recommended this product to anyone wanting to wire in taillight for flat tow. You can’t beat the price for a good quality kit like this, a year later and still works flawlessly. This is a true plug and play product. Why pay a shop top $$$ when you can install a hopkins kit in an afternoon. Good job hopkins
Instructions were wrong. Wires were too long no tape in box. And I now other than that it’s fine. have to buy an adapter cord to plug it in.
Ordered for a 01 jeep..My tow behind..Got it..installed it..works great to this day..
Good product. Install directions should include which plug in at each taillight should be used if you already have trailer hitch plug in wiring installed. Had to go to Youtube and find a video that talked about the correct colored wire you should connect to. Other than that, install went well.
We installed the wiring harness and never could get it to work so now we use magnetic lights. It was labor intense too install and a little gun shy to re-order the same product. I am a mechanic and was very disappointed in the light unit.
Thanks, kinda nice to vent!
I just finished installing this harness on my 2003 Wrangler. As any wiring on a Jeep, it was uncomfortable and tight to access the wiring. This is normal. The installation sheet instructions were inaccurate for my model, I have a career in automotive, so it was no problem for me. I installed this for flat towing of my Jeep. I ran the harness over the fuel tank and down the drivers side undercarriage, that is where the main harness and brake lines run.
Just finished installing the light kit on my 2005 Wrangler TJ Sport. Everything went as expected. The installation video helped a great deal. The written instructions that came with the kit were incorrect for my year vehicle but the video was right on.
The lights work fine when hooked up to the motorhome and when unhooked.
Great product, plugged right in.
After one year on the vehicle and also installing new LED lights, the wiring kit is still working. I love not having to add extra lights for towing.
