Use this bracket to mount your 7-way or 6-way round trailer connector on your vehicle. Built-in slot lets you easily install the bracket without having to disconnect your wiring. Black powder coat finish resists corrosion.

All the Hopkins products I've ordered have been exactly what I needed. The bracket as you can see has an opening to allow existing wires to slip through & it being a universal bracket it easily accepts different plug sockets. The bend at the top is a big plus and the paint holds up.
Bracket works well but doesn't come with and mounting hardware. Had to run to Lowe's for bolts and nuts.
Didn't realize that Traverse tow wiring kit PN 118271 didn't come with a mounting bracket. Discovered this on a Sunday. Needed a "universal" type like this one. I called eTrailer on Sunday afternoon and Bill went to the warehouse and verified that my Tekonsha 7-way connector would fit on this mounting bracket. It did, and he mailed it to me. Fit's great.
I was having trouble with the review and decided to wait to see how a return would be handled. The product does not come close to fitting the hitch I bought. And though it is described as universal it also isn’t compatible with the Honda OEM wiring Adapter. (etrailers wiring harness was backordered with a long lead time)
Well made, not rusting and mounted easily. While it did do the intended job adequately, on a 2021 Honda Pilot it places the entire cable assembly and plug directly in the way of the pin for the ball hitch. This means getting the ball in and out of the hitch is very time consuming. Luckily I tow 4 times a year so it’s not the end of the world for me.
I completed the connecting of all the wires to the 7-Way connector that comes in the ETBC7 kit. I used a flexible tubing to enclose all the wiring, which protects it from moisture kicked up from driving it wet or snowy conditions). The ground wire was secured and all the wiring tucked up out of the way and zip-tied into place). This alternate location for the 7-Way connector is much more satisfactory
The Plug holder works well. I had to mount it on the opposite side (Right side) of the receiver because if I mounted it on the receiver where the bracket was, I could install the cover over the receiver. But all worked out fine.
Worked as described.
Would have been nice to get the bolts nuts and washers with the bracket for the trailer hook up and would have been nice to know that the pins I bought are barely long enough to make it through the mounting bracket required me to bend them to make them fit.
EASY INSTALL FOR HITCH, ALTHOUGH THE 7 WAY WIRING HARNESS 118287 DOES NOT ALLOW FOR THE CENTER PANEL TO GO BACK ON. BRACKET IS HOPKINS HM48625 AND IT SHOULD INCLUDE HARDWARE.
is what i needed thanks
I am very happy with all the products and prices of items I have purchased from
etrailer. Item # HM48625 is very well made and easy to use. The slot at the bottom is a excellent addition that makes even easier to use.
Unfortunately I doubt that I will be ordering from etrailer in the future due to there practice of blowing up my computer with pop up's and ads. This practice turns a pleasant experience into a negative one.
Good product. Mounting holes were a little small for my bolts.

Working very well
All components exactly as listed. Having [video] clips for mounting a hitch and wiring my 06 Odyssey was outstanding.
Lined up perfectly with my drilled holes from original damaged bracket. Thanks.
Perfect for what I needed...so far ALL of the many products I've purchased from etrailer have been great quality with great customer support and services...
Worked as designed, needed to mount 7 pin trailer connector.
Good companion with the trailer hitch.
Worked great and great service
Works well. Especially with wiring slit to help with mounting.
Fit the DrawTite hitch on my Passport p erfectly.
This one fit perfectly! It really is universal. I ordered another style and the bolt pattern didn't fit my 7 pin head. Ordered this one and had it installed in 2 minutes.
Paula and Korren were both very knowledgeable and helpful getting me the right parts for my trailer set-up.
easy installation good fit
Right part Right on time!!
