Most Popular Trailer Connectors for 2008 Honda CR-V

I found what I thought I needed on the website to prepare our car to be flat towed, but wanted to call to verify. After a short phone call, eTrailer saved me about $50 and got me the stuff I actually needed to get the job done! I won’t shop anywhere else!

This part is an exact replacement to the part that failed. The failure was caused by a poor installation which allowed the rubber boot to chaff on the truck frame. As it was an exact replacement installation was straight forward although I modified the mounting bracket to prevent a reoccurrence of the problem.

Çable good but after putting new 7way plug on truck cable wire colors did not match etrailers picture

7 pin connector separated from cable. I was expecting that "Molded Cable" meant that the connector was fused to the cable insulation but instead, the two separated almost immediately after I installed it. It still works fine as the wires are connected securely inside the connector but with the outer covering pulled out like this, I don't think it will last very long.

Replaced the wiring and lights on my 1992 boat trailer. I was able to get everything needed from etrailer. I think Optronics is of the highest quality and recommend both etrailer and Optronics product.

Works very well after re-wiring trailer lights with waterproof distribution box.

I explained to Roger (I believe was his name) that I have a Blue Ox tow bar and base plate, The base plate was installed along with the wiring kit, but did not include the wire to go from the front of the grill to the interior of my Jeep to plug in my RVi brake, and this is what he sent me. I'm attaching a picture of what I have on my vehicle. Not only was it the completely wrong part, but it arrived in damaged packaging which I did not open. Please send return instructions.

After a year this connector is still working fine. No complaints.

Works great and etrailer folks did an outstanding job with quick turnaround and communication…thank you!

Exactly what we had been looking for. Now I can hook up multiple trailers with different connectors and all the electrics on each trailer works. I mounted mine directly to the receiver hitch frame. The biggest challenge for us was routing the backup wire from the taillight housing, through the body of the truck to the connector. the rest went together fairly easily. Seems to be pretty solid and looks much better than the loose pigtail connector it replaced.

Quick shipping, will order from them again!

Exactly what I needed and It's a great fit

I periodically pull a 12v pressure sprayer behind my lawn tractor. The 12v harness I originally made that clipped to the tractor battery was always cumbersome and became hazardous when it recently shorted out due to rubbing (and no fuse in line). So I finally took the time to do it right, mounted this connector to the rear next to the taillight, and created a hidden fused permanent harness to the battery, and of course utilized the mating connector for the sprayer harness side. This little connector was perfect, high quality materials (connector body and electrical terminals), high spring force on the cover when not in use, nice sealed design yet easy to plug/unplug. Very happy with this purchase and will likely buy it again.

This is not a real easy thing for do it yourselfer. However with the resources provided, if you are ok using tools and are able to watch a video showing step by step you and can do this. The base plate and towing system has been perfect.

The stuff not here

Very difficult to make the wiring connections, I was afraid I’d have problems on down the road so, I took it out of circuit and threw it away

Wiring worked perfect for my project. I replaced the wiring on my 14 foot utility trailer. If I was to do it again I would buy the next length up. I would have liked to have a little extra wiring if I was to ever need it.

Your sales staff is second to none. Keep up the good work. You shipped minutes after I placed my order! Very impressed! Marty

We just finished a makeover of our 1995 boat trailer. New bunks, sanded and painted but the best part of the project was the new LED lights from your company. They are so much brighter than the old incandescent bulbs that you really do feel safer driving down the road. We pulled the 20 year old wire out and replaced with new and used the 3M scotch loks to tie in. We were not sure the new style grommets would fit the old holes in the frame but they fit great. Your customer service was great, alerting me to a backordered reflector but recommended a replacement that worked fine. Patrick set up a Q&A page for me since I had questions about the best way to protect connections with dielectric grease, heat shrink and tape. Your website is one of the best with ease of navigation, complete pictures, great selection and thorough info, dimensions, etc. You guys really have your act together and also offer great value. I would not hesitate to purchase again and will recommend you when I can. I have attached a couple of pictures. Thanks for all your help. Wayne N.

Easy to install and works great.

Used this as the connection point for the Roadmaster diode wiring kit. Seems to be well made and will hopefully last a long time. I did spray paint it flat black so it blends into the front bumper of my “toad” a little better.

The documentation for wiring is limited and difficult to read without magnification. Otherwise this is well made and works perfectly.

Sooo, bought another one to match my truck side connection as GM uses Pollak, which are known to not play well with other brands. The design is just a wire clamp to wire it, which I did with the first one, but trying to get it secured I stripped out the screw. There are no torque specs provided. I’ll move to crimped ring terminals on this one and dial back the torque a bit.

Routine trailer maintenance. Absolutely nothing worse than fighting trailer lighting or electric brake issues when traveling.

Excellent Quick Delivery When you are driving a Test or NASCAR Hauler you need replacement parts very quick, just like a pit stop. Thank You very much for the rapid delivery. Mint Moore III Ford Performance Race Hauler Driver

A great little heavy duty plug that I use to connect my car to the rv when towing 4 down.

Great place for any trailer needs. They alway gave what I want at a good price and fast shipping.

Just what we needed to make a custom harness for our boat trailers that we often tow with light and medium-duty wreckers. No more zip-typing our wireless drag lights to the trailers! Thanks, guys!

They have just what I needed and it arrived very quickly.

I have used etrailer probably four or five times now and have been very happy. Shipping is fast, prices are reasonable and the products are of good quality. I purchased more of the Quick Fix 4 Pole Trailer Ends - they work really well for the non-automotive industrial control project I am working on.

Only gave 4 stars because it was a bit confusing. I have a lot of auto wiring experience; from car stereos,amplifiers and all manner of accessories. All of the info on etrailer indicated that the color coding didn't match up. So I went into it disregarding the standard color coding, when in fact it was just as it should be.

Good thick rubber and plug works perfectly.

Items were simply “thrown in the box” WITH the hitch which was not secured properly. Heavy hitch then bounced around on electrical connectors, destroying them. Components should have been fastened to the hitch as the hardware kit was with strong tape instead of just thrown into the box by somebody! Refund issued.

Product arrived on time and as described. I used this for setting up our 2014 Wrangler Unlimited Sahara for a flat tow. Mounting hole spacing @ 2" o/c didn't match our Blue Ox 1126 draw bar so I fabricated my own intermediate bracket, polished it to aircraft tooling standards, then lacquered it before final assembly. I think the finished product came out nice.

Heavy duty plug that has a good snug fit and I like the jacketed cord that provides strength and extra protection.

I have been very pleased with etrailer orders recently. Everything shows up when expected and products are as expected. Attached are a couple before and after pictures of my recent project to add lights to a cargo rack per my wife's request. Thanks for the professionalism of all at trailer

Well I wasn't able to use this as there was no good place to install on my car without it practically dragging. Not a product problem at all. I tried to return and customer service was fast and super helpful... unfortunately return shipping would eat up any refund. So.. I get to keep it. good quality and product. Very happy with it and wish I could use it. Will keep it for sometime in the future when of course I will need it.

I bought this socket for my 2006 Volvo Xc90 to wire in the 4-Pole harness I also purchased from etrailer. Already had a few 7 Blade to 4-Pole adapters from my previous vehicle, and wanted the option of adding a trailer brake wire for a small camper later on so that was the main reason for the purchase. It also went very well with the Hidden Hitch I had already installed, bracket mounted right up to the existing tabs on the hitch. Super quick and easy install, as all of my etrailer purchases have been. Looks great on the truck, and functions great with the 180 Degree cover.

The plug was missing the set screw and collar that compresses on the cable to prevent strain on the connectors when removing the plug. You can see the set screw clearly in the product picture.

I like this style of plug because it is molded and is important in keeping water out of the plug. It is conveint because it has the right colored wires. I have a water tight termination box with studs that it is wired into. Once I damaged the cable so I opened up the terminal box installed eyelet lugs on the spare pigtail, and installed it in a fiew minuets. I keep a spare on hand with lugs on it so if I have an accident I can quickly replace it. I also use these on some of my smaller tow behind equipment. that's why I like this size plug it isn't real bulky.
