Most Popular Trailer Connectors for 2013 Honda Fit

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!

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

I have made purchases for two different vehicles. Both were used for four wheel down towing. Each time etrailer gave me correct information on the products and promptly shipped and delivered them. Best of all they fit correctly and no surprises. I will use them again.

The stuff not here

Quick shipping, will order from them again!

Exactly what I needed and It's a great fit

I upgraded my trailer from hydraulic to electric brakes and rewired everything to neaten and freshen up things. Its a nice piece. I recommend.

The overall quality of the cable is impressive

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.

Installed the Hopkins muti-tow 7, 5, and 4 way flat connector this morning. I ripped the original connector that was attached to the bottom of the hitch receiver off when I was 4-wheeling into the Doll House campgrounds in the Maze District of Canyonlands a month ago. So, I cut a hole in the bumper and mounted the new Hopkins connector, cut off the old broken connector mounting bracket, and connected the factory wiring to the new Hopkins device. Hopkins product installed easily, looks great, is now out of the way, and has the flexibility of multiple trailer connectors when required. I am pleased with the product. Attached is a photo.

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.

It is a direct OEM replacement, easy installation. What I liked most was a real person answered my call and took my order, Katherine was very polite and knowledgeable. Thanks again. CJ

Worked out awesome. I bought this for a buddy for his used truck. The previous owners for what ever reason took it. Plugged it in and worked flawlessly.

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.

This was easy to install looks great and works excellent. have had on issues with this product my trailer lights are always working and keeping me safe.

Installed a Blue Ox Base Plate kit on a 2015 Cadillac SRX. The base plate arrived promptly and was well packaged considering its weight. Watched the videos etrailer provides and used them as a step by step video guide. The videos were a big help. Installation is not too difficult if you're mechanically inclined. Had someone help with the installation but one person can perform the installation. I think the base plate is well engineered and everything fit as it should. Love the fact the installation is so well hidden. We have about 400 miles on the installation and have had no issues. Thanks to etrailer for a great price, great service, and great product support.

Excellent addition. I was having an issue with chaffing the straight oem wiring when towing my gooseneck with my F-550. This coiled wire completely eliminated that problem.

This coiled wire connector is a must for travel trailers as the straight one that came with the trailer drug on the road until it wore through on a busy interstate highway and subsequently locked up the brakes at approximately 60 mph. The way it stopped the truck and trailer I thought the transmission exploded. It would not move until I disconnected the trailer batteries. Make sure you order it long enough as I did not twice! E-Trailer was the best at changing my order before shipping and again when I returned one that I still thought was too short. I still can't say enough good things about how they have treated me through multiple times I have ordered things from them,definitely my go to for anything I need for our trailer.....

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.

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.

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.

I recently had a need for the Hopkins Endurance Quick-Fix Replacement 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector w LED Test Lights - Vehicle End - HM48190 to replace the faulty one on my van. It was easy to find what I needed on the site and the price was comparable to other sites I had visited. I decided to go with etrailer because I had previously ordered the hitch through them. I appreciated the fact that an email was sent out confirming that they received the order as well as a follow-up email telling me that the part was shipped along with providing the tracking number. The installation of the part was easy and took no time to complete. Overall it was a fine experience and if I need to order anything in the future, I will be sure to come back and order from etrailer.

Great product. Easy to install

I rewired my light bar for my boat trailer with the items I purchased. Before I built the the light bar, every time I used my boat trailer I would waste valuable sailing or fishing time repairing faulty lights. The do not last long when you submerge them in salt water. This light bar now version 3.0 have given little trouble over the years

Great product. Works well when I had a broken connection on my 4 way plug end on my light-up hitch cover I bought from y'all a while back. Always a happy customer. Thanks, George.

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.

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.

I used the Hopkins 3 to 2 converter to make a 6-pin round to 4-flat connector for my Winnebago View motorhome. While there are 6-4 plugs available to do this, they do not work on the Winnebago View (no brake lights). This adaptor works great.

This device was no help in connecting my five wire trailer to my four wire goldwing. I ended up having to use a number of diodes in the trailer wiring to make everything work properly. My trailer had red LEDs that were used for Brake, Turn & stop and I had to get the brake and turn function to share the same lead on the light fixture.

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.
