Hopkins Active Tail Light Converter with Install Kit
Excellent. The only down side for my Lexus RX300 was not having an “easy” way to mount male 4-way next to hitch rather than stowing it beside tire bay. No big deal just a plus.
I received this product the other day and went to work installing it on my 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. This was done outdoors on a sunny 90 plus degree day on [the driveway]. Prior to buying I had read the online instructions and, more importantly, watched an installation video. The video was a huge help and the kit was very easy to install. The snap splice connectors work like a charm. I used extra zip ties I had to secure the power line in place as I routed it down the passenger side of the Jeep. Hook up to the battery terminal was easy. I did not have a circuit tester to check the individual wires to ID their function but since their colors exactly matched the video, I decided to take my chances. It worked out great. Installation of the power wire would be easier on a lift but I don’t have one installed in my driveway so it entailed crawling under the

Adapter 4 Pole to 7 Pole Vehicle End Trailer Connector
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.
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!

Hopkins 7-Way RV Style Connector with Molded Cable - Trailer End - 8' Long - RV Standard
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.
Çable good but after putting new 7way plug on truck cable wire colors did not match etrailers picture

Pollak Black Plastic, 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector - Trailer End
I installed this connector on my travel trailer. The original connector had become loose and would fall out if not retained by the tab on the bottom of the connector. After a year of usage The Pollack connector still snaps into place and fits tight. Good product.
Routine trailer maintenance. Absolutely nothing worse than fighting trailer lighting or electric brake issues when traveling.

RoadMaster 6-Wire Connectors - Trailer and Vehicle Ends
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.
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.

35 Ft 4-Way Trailer Wiring Harness - Wishbone Style - 42" Ground
Works very well after re-wiring trailer lights with waterproof distribution box.
2 things. 1st@: I think there should be an option to pick tinned wire. 2nd: The ring terminal for the ground needs to be bigger.

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

Adapter 4-Pole to 7-Pole and 4-Pole
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.
This is a great adapter to retro fit connections on my 2011 Expedition. Simple to instal and great support from etrailer.com.

Adapter 4 Pole to 7 Pole and 4 Pole w/Test Lamps
I recently had a receiver hitch installed on my 89 Silverado and the wiring was merely zip tied to the safety chain connection. Well that didn't sit well with me. I wanted a more permanent wiring connection point. So I purchased your 4 flat to 4 flat and 7 way plug and installed it. So far so good. The installation turned out perfect and it looks good. The test lights are a great thing as well. I couldn't be happier.
Not too difficult to install, but I would recommend using a car lift so you don't have to work from your back (review includes wiring harness and Brake Controller)

Pollak 7 Pole to 4 Way Connector Adapter
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
I used this outlet plug to have 12 volt to power our shuttle pump on the water wagon to pump chemicals into our chem farm mix tank works really well easy to wire and very nice looking very durable .

Hopkins Endurance 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector - Trailer End - Ergonomic Design
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.

Hopkins Endurance Quick-Install 7-Way Trailer Connector with Universal Pigtail Harness - Vehicle End
Overall, I was very impressed by this connector. I used it as an in-bed connector for my gooseneck trailers. The plug seems to be a quality product, engineered to stand up to some abuse. I like how the mounting bolt heads recess into the connector and also how the bottom of the connector is elongated to help support the weight of the plug and wiring. I think it has a great shot at lasting for a very long time. The hinge is predominately plastic that will not corrode and break like the many I've had in the past.
Great Product quick and easy install.

Pollak Replacement 7-Pole, RV-Style Trailer Connector Socket - Vehicle End
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
The 3 star rating is because this is not a direct replacement for a Nissan Armada. I bought this to replace the original socket on a 2004 Nissan armada. The hitch on the car says it is a Nissan hitch. I did not notice that the original socket mounted as a twist lock type and the bracket had no mounting screws when I ordered this socket. In defense of the manufacture and distributor of this socket the description did not say it was a direct replacement for an armada the assumption would be that the hitch would be the same as a titan. This was no big deal for me since I had a drill and bits to drill mounting holes and used # 8 sheet metal screws. Just have to be careful to drill the holes the right size so they self thread properly. I have been looking to see if there is a direct replacement for the original socket but can't seem to find one not even on Nissan's parts web site so I guess you just have to do what I did. I didn't think to take a video of the installation but I have included a picture of the finished install.

Hopkins Heavy-Duty Trailer Coiled Wire Adapter 7-Way to 5-Way Flat with Nite-Glow
Still works great. The light up feature is great for knowing if a lighting problem is the vehicle or trailer.
The adapter works great. Actually, this was the exact replacement my trailer originally had. I tried one other adapter, not same brand and it didn't connect securely, not allowing a good connection.

Curt Trailer Connector Adapter with Backup Alarm - 4-Way to 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat
I never used it. It does not fit my motorhome. Still sitting in my garage.
Exactly what I was looking for. Easily connected to my existing 4-way without any additional wiring. The 7-way adapter bracket was the correct size, and the holes were pre-drilled for the right fit to connect to the existing bracket on the (U-Haul Installed) tow bar.

Pollak Black Plastic, 7-Pole, RV Blade-Style Trailer Socket - Vehicle End
As the video indicates, ensure that your vehicle wiring is the same as the 7 blade definitions. Mine was not. Had to determine what color wire connections to use for a 4 flat adapter use on a dolly.
Service from erailer is always quick and efficient. The one time an incorrect product was shipped, the company beat a path to my door to get the right item into my hands. Every experience with them has been 100% positive. Great folks!

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.
