Most Popular Wiring Adapters for 1997 Chevrolet Malibu

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.

Everything worked out well. On time and fits perfect. Attach hitch setup and my new Ridgeline. It comes with a 2" inch receiver and I have a full compliment of 1.25. stuff from my previous car. All from etrailer i must admit! so I needed the 2-1.25 reducer, a good lock, and the 7-4 reducer for my goodies! Thanks for the grest service

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!

i had to replace these two items as my dear daughter went down our goat path driveway too fast. they replaced the originals from etrailer from the prior year. shipping is timely and customer service actually helps! i wired from battery to controller to hitch myself, and everything fit.

ETrailer had exactly what I wanted at a fair price. Website was easy to navigate and purchasing was simple. Shipping was fast and I was kept notified right up to when I received my order.

Plugs in easily, shows that pins are producing voltage, and locks in place using the spring loaded door to the 7-pin.

fits the plug perfect....just got a goldwing used, haven't had a chance to ensure it (the bike) was wired correctly for a trailer. no fault of the product, just wish its wireing was a bit long due to the way the plug was intigrated into the underside of the tour trunk.

Works great! Took a few minutes to figure out the rv side and get it set up so the round RV part Correlated in the correct way to the standard four flat wiring. But it went smoothly.

Thank you so much for having videos to show how to install the items I buy.too cool

Just what I needed, Thank you.

The staff and products at etrailer are awesome

Product came on time and worked great. I’ve never ordered from Amazon preferring to order directly from suppliers.

Works, exact fit, high quality, coils tight so max of about 3.5’ perfect! Heavy duty wiring, great waterproof connections.

Item was just as I anticipated. It looks good, works great, and the delivery was as promised. E Trailer is a good place to do business.

We had been having trouble with our other adapters, no brakes or intermittent brakes. This adapter fits better than any of the others ever have, great connection and is holding tight. I will be picking up some more of these. The only downside to me was they came on the value shipping which is rather delayed for us and I would rather pay to get it here more quickly. I was needing it and it was several days getting here. We ship a lot and I know shipping directly with USPS goes faster than that and is not expensive.

Added the gooseneck trailer plug in bed and I wanted to be compatible with new and old style plugs. Adapor worked great.

This product is ideal. Short and compact. Lights indicate that it's working. Eliminates homemade adapter.

I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THAT

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).

Works really well.

This product wooks great. I will do business with this company again

E-trailer: they've got what I need at a reasonable price. This is what e-commerce should be!

I received the product after just a few days. I had many technical questions that were answered by a competent service person. The product arrived in great shape and I had reviewed their installation video so installation went very quickly and easy. My 2011 Chevrolet Silverado is equipped with a 7 pole connection so I bought their adapter to convert to flat 4 pole connection. That an the CR-017 led worked very with first try. I also bought the trailer hitch lock at the same time. All products are very easy to use.
