Adapter 4 Pole to 7 Pole Vehicle End Trailer Connector
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.

Great product no issues at all. Product as described & fit properly.
Pretty straight forward. I used it to switch my European trailer's connection to be able to connect to my Wrangler's 4-pin trailer hookup. No issues. works great.

7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector, 4' Long
When I ordered this harness I thought I was getting a standard 7 way for a conventional trailer with brakes. What I actually got was a harness made for a camper/RV hook up. The wires have all the colors you would expect but all the lights/turn signals are coded into the plug completely different. After spending a good deal of time carefully matching, soldering and heat shrinking all connections to my new trailer harness, I was very dismayed to find only the brakes actually worked. After a bit of research I found a schematics page on the etrailer site and discovered the problem. As this is a molded plug I could not take it apart and just reposition the wires inside the plug. Another full hour or more of rewiring followed and now all is well. The harness itself is of very good quality but was not labeled/identified properly. This could have been prevented if etrailer would clearly label this harness as a camper/RV harness only.
This is definitely a good quality molded cord for the money. Route and wire this cord into a good quality junction box and you will be on your way to having some excellent trailer wiring.

Tow Ready 4 Pole to 5 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter
Simple and easy to use; just plug it in and connect it to the trailer harness. Works like a charm!
Not installed yet but looks as good as one used before in a former vehicle. The actual adapter I received is "Reese", which is a reputable brand for towing accessories.

Wesbar 4-Pole Flat Connector w/ Jacketed Cable - Trailer End - 4' Long
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

7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector - 3' Long
I've had this in use for over a year and they don't build them like they use to. I use this on a gooseneck trailer and the piece of plastic behind the spade connector for the clearance lights and brakes has melted, allowing the spade connector to lose contact with the plug on the pickup. So the lights would cut off in the middle of the night and would have to wiggle the connection till I could fix it. I have an older Hopkins plug and never had this problem. To fix the problem I ended up putting pieces of thin copper wire behind the spade and have done it twice since the plastic melted a 2nd time and once again the trailer clearance lights would quit working. Attached are before and after pictures.
After a year doing its job well.

Hopkins Endurance 5-Way Flat Trailer Connector - Trailer End - Ergonomic Design
The product arrived in a timely manner and undamaged. I have not used this 5 pole adapter yet, but the 4 pole adapter I previously bought from etrailer years ago is still working great. I have no reason to doubt that this adapter will function equally well. I appreciate the good products and customer service from Etrailer.
I needed the extra wire to run for multi-led lights mounted underneath the steps at the rear of my trailer, when in reverse trailering. This connector seems heavier-duty compared to many on the market and so far is still working well after a year or more. As with most products from etrailer, I haven't been let down yet. Here's a real special GOTCHA moment I had recently; My trailer jack stand, which I had purchased from my well-known and popular local trailer company to replace my original had rusted to pieces. I needed a replacement quickly and trusted I'd get a decent product and price as had been the norm over many years. Anyway, I purchased the new jack and wheel and brought them home to install myself. Upon taking the jack out of the bag it came in, I noticed a sticker from etrailer, yea. Before installing I went online, saw that my jack was less than half the cost I'd just paid, and realized I should have purchased the jack when I had originally shopped online at the start of this replacement process. I could have returned my over-priced items but decided I didn't have the time due to procrastination. I decided they could keep their extra profit on this purchase but I won't get fooled again and my local shop has lost my trust.

Hopkins Wiring Harness with 5-Pole Flat Trailer Connector - Vehicle End - 5' Long
The Glolight LED trailer set is the perfect replacement for my tow dolly. It is light weight and much more visible than the standard bulb lamp set the trailer was equipped with. Installation was quick and very easy, I will recommend this to all needing to change theirs out...
Great Prices and Fast Shipping

Hopkins Endurance 5-Way Flat Trailer Connector - Vehicle End - Ergonomic Design
I fitted the Hopkins 5-way flat connector harness with a 5-way round plug which couples to my Goldwing trike (tow vehicle). The popup trailer lights operate as designed.
Connector and wire harness well made - connector designed such that it can be mounted and harness has added protection for wires. Would like to have marine grade wire since I do mostly saltwater fishing. I mounted the connector on a piece of 1.5" square galvanized tubing painted black.

48" Long 4-Pole Loop with Cover
I have now installed the following on my 2017 Wrangler: Brake light relay kit . Hopkins Towed vehicle Tail Light wiring kit. Blue Ox base plate. Blue Ox Patriot Portable RF Braking System. All of this has taken about 3 days of work spread out over a week or so. Overall it went well. Not too many surprises. Crawling around under a car at 71 is a bit of a strain but I'll get over it. I must say that Donna P. has been a wonderful source of great information and has stayed right on top of the process. eTrailer has been a great source for this project. I would recommend you all with no hesitation.
The items I ordered will allow me to adapt my utility trailer for transporting my sea kayaks. Curt and Hopkins are both quality manufacturers. On a shipping note, the box arrived at the Post Office broken wide open. Your shipping folks need to wrap small, heavy, items in bubble wrap. Then stabilize it with foam peanuts. Just putting it in a box then stuffing the box with craft paper does not cut it. Items were not damaged so I am good to go.

Hopkins Wiring Harness with 5-Pole Flat Trailer Connector - Trailer End - 18" Long
Good for converting 4 wire boat trailer harness to 5 wire. I would have preferred an adapter that plugged into the existing 4 wire plug with an integrated backup wire that is spliced into the blue wire on the trailer.
The whole staff at etrailer bent over backwards to make sure I was satisfied with the installation of brakes on my trailer. Have made several purchases from them always satisfied with parts and service. Special credit to Jamie great to deal with. Answered all my questions and was very knowledgeable.

Hopkins Endurance 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector - Trailer End - Ergonomic Design
Shawn B. (& everyone I talked with at E Trailer) was wonderful. Great phone support. Great products. We did a great job installing the wiring harness. Made me wonder why we originally took it to a "professional" trailer sales & service place in Ogden UT. They hacked into our wiring & created problems. I will continue to be a grateful customer. Finding good people who know their stuff in todays world is a soul healing event. Thank you E Trailer!
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

Hopkins 4-Pole Loop - 12" Long
Perfect product for my needs. My 4 pin is hiding under a cover on my bumper, so I used this device to plug into the vehicles 4 pin and allow the extension to hang below the bumper. Now I can quickly plug in to the adapter without taking a panel off. Cheap easy fix for a great deal of convenience!
Perfect for our needs

Hopkins 2-Pole Flat Wiring Extension - 12" Long
Work as advertised, though I used it for a simple 2 wire disconnect for my awning strip light. Cut it in half and hardwired both the feed and the light strip. Now I can disconnect the light strip when rolling up my awning.
Quality flat wiring extension.

Hopkins 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector w/ 48" Harness
What can I say, it works. Etrailer is easy to do business with.
SMI Stay in Play Duo installation in 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited – Packaging was great with everything needed included plus extra items for various installation methods of you’re choosing. Upon initial investigation and survey, everything except the CD Information pack was accounted for. No big deal, as I had previously watched 2 different Youtube installations found on the internet. In fact, the internet videos were what I used as my step by step installation process, and the written instructions were only used for concerns where the video may not have been as clear as I had hoped for. Understanding that everyone has their own style and methods for doing this project, I purposely was not in a hurry to rush through it. All in all, I took @ 8 hours to install the Adapter 4 to 6 pole #30637, the EZMount Tow lights Kit, and the Stay in Play Duo Braking System. I choose the EZMount because I didn’t want to mess around with the OEM taillights and wiring. Magnetic lights don’t work so well on composite tops and I didn’t want to stick them to the sides of te Jeep, so I modified the EZ mount to wrap around the thickness of the rear glass hatch on both sides. I added a 2”x 4” pc of Velcro on the inside of the glass hatch and the mating surface of the plastic light housing - to hold the lamps in place until the rear gate was closed. I ran the wire harness on the inside under the trim all the way up to the front and through the grommet in the firewall. The flat 4 wire was routed and secured up to the Adapter 4 pole to 6 pole that I had fastened to the Blue Ox base plate. The actual installation of the SMI unit and assorted parts went rather smoothly. Most difficult issue was the lack of working space in front of the driver’s seat area. Installing the screw that holds the G force controller on the front (the side towards the front of the car) was difficult as it was almost a blind installation due to lack of room. The nut and fender washer used through the fire wall for attaching the air cylinder cable bracket was a challenge to reach - tight fit with not much room for one's hand and arm. Other than that, no big surprises – just a lot of tedious steps to do when you want to be sure that it is being installed properly – take your time and don’t be in a hurry. Once everything was installed – it all worked when I checked the system out. The only thing that may seem a bit odd is that when setting the G force initially, the compressor will shut off while adjusting per instructions. To do this initial adjustment, the wife stepped on the brake in the Motorhome, with the switch “On”. The compressor starts, and the brake is pushed down by the Air Cylinder, at which time I slowly adjusted the G force until the compressor shuts off. I secured the adjusting bolt and I told the wife to take her foot off the brake and then re-apply them. The compressor did not start again and the air cylinder did not apply the brakes in the Jeep. After setting the G force per instructions, the unit didn't turn on when the brakes in the Motorhome were applied - but since we were not moving - all I can assume is that the brake system will function while slowing down once the accelerometer setting (the sensitivity setting on the G force box) has been met. I assume that the sensitivity setting method includes a way to ensure the Jeep brakes are not engaged too frequently and only until needed. This is the only step that is a tad bit confusing without an explanation as to what to expect once the G force sensitivity is set. Lastly, I checked the brake away switch and it turned the compressor on and applied the brakes as expected. Overall - the installation went rather smoothly. Can't wait to see how the product works once we hit the road. I'll check back and provide an update later.

Perfect! extra long so I got rid of all my bull crab wiring
Well made, especially the mounding around the plug. Pin alignment was very good.

I saved over a hundred dollars over local and installed it my self. I cant imagine how that they could do any better. THANKS!"
