I LIKE TO STAND BACK AN LOOK AT WHAT I AM HOOKING UP AN I TRACK THE RIGHT SIDE WIRE DOWN ON THE LEFT SIDE AN WIRED IT ALL ON THE LEFT SIDE IT MAKES IT SO MUCH NICER.. 96 GEO TRACKER 4X4
The online fit guide stated that this would work for my 2000 Honda Civic, but after installation (double checked for proper installation) only one brake light worked on the trailer.
Brooke M - 01/23/2023eTrailer gets a grade of A+. The actual part gets a grade of B-. Two of the wires arrived slightly damaged - luckily near the cut end so I didn't have to lose much length. The sticker identifying the 4 wires on one side and 5 wires on the other was upside down, so I peeled it off and reapplied (my OCD kicking in!). I wanted to keep my original quick release plugs on 1996 Jeep Cherokee Sport & was able to do that. Used heat shrink connectors between them & Curt Converter. All lights on vehicle & trailer working perfectly again!
Nice quality because the shank that goes into the hitch is solid but hallow like the ones from other sources.
This kit worked perfectly for my 2009 Kia Sportage. It had all of the parts I needed and the only real challenge was trying to identify the correct wires to splice into.
I've been using this wiring harness for around a year now and it's performed amazingly. I have a 2004 VW Jetta Wagon, picked up some cheap female "pin" connectors as my taillights on my car had pins that you could just slide a connector on to. I was able to use this method to install this harness without actually cutting into any of my cars wiring. Working amazingly.
Corey - 05/06/2022The quick splice were a bit oversized for my Audi wiring. Required me to wiggle it a bit to get a good connection to the, my guess 22ga, wire. Could also use at least a few more zipties. Otherwise, this is a good kit.
Did not work with my application. To this day I still don't have working trailer lights.
David B - 10/08/2022I never installed it. I expected plug in vehicle-specific harness part number 55522 for my 2003 Toyota Echo I had ordered and received from you before for my 2000 model and you sent me this useless piece of electrical shinola. May I still return it as it is unopened?
Clear and concise instructions made install a breeze. Great product.
a good easy to install product
Easy to hook up
Transaction went great , arrived when specified . Have not installed yet, that will happen next week .
Looks like a simple install. Pretty quick shipping to Canada.
Nice kit, worked great for a month. Now it doesn't turn the brake lights or tail lights.
Brooke M - 04/27/2022The instructions were clear as well as the label on the converter box. My only issue was the ground screw and recommended size hole did not result in a snug connection to ground (which would compromise the entire system). I found a larger sheet metal screw and resolved the problem (on a whole, this was not a big deal); just make sure you ground screw is snug.
I always get the best customer service from etrailer and that’s why I keep coming back to buy anything I need for towing. Oh, and their prices are great too.
Was very happy and satisfied with my purchase and delivery of my product. Insulation went very well.
Good price, product was perfect, and the shipping was quick. Problem solved. T-taps are sort of miserable, but that's on the installer, not the product - cutting, soldering, and heat shrinking is definitely the way to go.
If you have a problem with your 'Yota truck lighting acting wonky, chances are very high this unit is your issue! Mount it up high, on the bottom of the bed to keep it dry and give it decent life. The harness cover is a nice touch that does not come with all of these - pack it with dielectric grease, and you'll get many years out of this.
Good job, etrailer!
Patrick B - 03/04/2013The Circuit Protected Converter # SMT C56175 trailer lighting harness for my 1998 VW Beetle arrived within a few days and was easy to install with the include instructions!
All trailer lights worked perfect the first time they were checked after the install! Great job to ALL of you at etrailer.com
David W - 01/04/2015Well designed
I got this for my 2009 Yaris. Works great to pull my Kayak trailer. Installation was pretty easy also.
Easy enough to install, I would have liked a little bit more wire on the vehicle side of wiring. Not a huge fan of splice clips, but not enough to provide my own, would like better proper crush and heatshink splicing. Just installed, so no comment of longevity or reliability.
This kit worked great. Your car or truck may need a little extra wire for the right turn signal but I am very very happy with the quality of the materials and install. Hauled my trailer safely today and did not have to redo any connections!
