This connector locks right into the factory knockout on the bumper for a clean, factory look. The twist-in mount holds tight and keeps the plug secure so there’s no need for extra brackets or drilling. It’s built to directly replace worn or damaged OEM sockets while matching the original fit and finish.
The 7-blade plug handles everything your trailer lights and brakes need — running lights, turn signals, brake lights, reverse lights, electric brake power, ground, and 12-volt charge line. It gives you the standard RV-style connection ready to hook up to most trailers with electric brakes or battery maintenance circuits.
Behind the connector is a round socket that mates with the existing factory wiring harness under the bumper. That plug-in design means no splicing or wire tracing — just connect the factory harness to the back of the unit and twist it into place. It’s a straightforward install that restores full trailer wiring function fast.
A good seal at the plug keeps out dirt and moisture that can cause corrosion or shorts. For best results, applying dielectric grease inside the connector helps maintain clean contacts and smooth operation over time. The durable housing stands up to road spray and weather exposure for reliable towing connections season after season.
Ratings & Reviews
used this plug to replace the factory "filler". this item is well built, excellent spring, just what i needed to keep the 7 way option (used with a four way trailer harness). breeze to install and fits snugger than the factory one (2008 silverado). would recommend and first time ordering with etrailer...will do business again, great products to fit any situation, outstanding service and prices. videos are great too. look no further than this company. shipping was fast. A++++ all the way around. good job guys.
Looks like OEM and took all of a minute or two to install. The video was very helpful to show how to remove plate on back of rear bumper. The wiring harness on my 2012 Silverado wasn place so it was only a matter of removing plate and plugging in. A seven point adapter then plugs into this and the trailer plug just pushes onto the adapter. I tried both a seven point adapter that I kept from my 2005 Silverado and also a seven point adapter that my brother has on a 2011 Honda Pilot and they are all universal and worked just fine.. Very user friendly.The tow hitch took about 45 minutes to also install with no help (though a second person could make it a 30 minute ordeal tops). Very pleased and the shipping was ahead of original date with just normal ground freight..
Perfect replacement for my 2005 GMC Sierra 1500 Z71 with Tow Package. Broke mine this winter and needed a quick replacement.
I installed this trailer connector on my 2002 Silverado Z71 after the original connector cover broke off. It was identical and the fit was perfect. No problem specifying this part, ordering was easy, and it arrived in a timely manner.
After spending a little time online figuring out how this connector attaches to the factory hitch (push the tab, twist about 1/4 turn, pull out far enough to reach wiring harness connector), I ordered one from etrailer. When I got it, it took me all of 5 minutes to remove the broken connector and install the new one. Upon examining the OEM connector, which says "GM" on the lid's outside, it says "Pollak" on the inside, so the OEM part was built by this aftermarket company. No wonder it fit so well! BTW, the original broke because of cockpit error, not because of manufacturing defect.
Quick shipping, product fit well. etrailer has good products.

Product worked great
Couldn't have been any easier. Hardest thing was opening the package??.
Perfect. Fast shipping. Product exactly as advertised. Installation was as simple as can be. Took me about 2 minutes. AND - it works perfectly. Couldn't be happier

Still working perfectly.
After 18 years, my original trailer plug connector was showing signs of corrosion. When I bought a travel trailer with electric brakes, I knew I could no longer trust my old connector. I purchased this replacement because it is identical to the OEM connector which I knew was excellent quality, not a cheap knock-off. It was simple to install and the wire connector plugged right in. I've been using it extensively for a year now and it's been working flawlessly. I'm glad I purchased this quality connector that I can trust.
This part, which was not available at the local parts store, is an exact replacement for the connector I damaged. Easy installation.

works well, no problems, fast delivery
This little marvel was a piece o' cake to install. Less than 10 minutes from taking it out of the box to installing in the bumper of my Chevy and wiping my hands on my pants. If my nosy and talkative neighbor wouldn't have been staring over my shoulder, it would have been installed in under 5 minutes.

No issues to report, the unit is working fine.
works good
Replaces plug with broken cover tab. Old plug matches photo. Correct model year replacement not exact duplicate but fits cutout and wire harness. Average price. Very fair shipping fee.

Looks good, fits good, works fine.
Looks to be good quality. Easy to install.
Remove the old connector by depressing the keeper, turning it counter clock wise about a quarter turn, slide it out, depress the keeper on the wiring harness connector and unpluging the unit. Install the new connector by pluging in the wiring harness connector, sliding the unit through the bumper hole and turning it about a quarter turn clock wise to lock it in place. It took less time than writing this.

After a year, I still believe this product is well made of high quallity products. It is operating well as I expected it would. Thank you for building and selling this product.
Old electric plug in on my 2007 Chevy 2500 was worn out. Cord from RV would not stay plugged in. Went on line on E-Trailer, ordered a new part for GM vehicles, when it arrived, it took me about five minutes or lees to remove the plug all I needed was a small regular blade screwdriver. New part woks fine. This is the 2nd or 3rd time I have ordered from E-Trailer. I have always been satisfied. Thank you Ken Hill

Still working great
Fit and worked perfect. Direct replacem ent
Perfect fit for my 2008 Silverado. Identical to the adapter used in my wife's 2007 Suburban, except hers says "GM" and mine says "Pollack." This is all assuming it works, I haven't hooked a trailer up to it yet.
This connector arrived fast and was very easy to install. Took about two minutes to put in. It seems to be of very good quality.
Very easy...Installed in about 10 seconds. Product did not completely cover the holes through the bumper that existed from the factory harness insert. So you can see light a little bit of light around the product.
Easy and works
Works perfect just like GM specs....fast shipping

This looks like my GMC 2006 connector. What is the year of your truck. The spec says it is for 2007 and up.

I have a 07 Chevy Avalanche
Broke my trailer electrical socket on my GMC pickup, I’m 1,500 miles from home waiting for the snow to start melting to go home. The local GM dealer wanted over $70.00 for replacement part. Found this one at etrailer.com for $16.95. I had it sent priority mail as mail has been slow here in AZ , received in six day and took less than five minutes to install. Hate to leave AZ , but home in SD is calling. We will be be back next winter. Thanks to etrailer for saveing me money I’ll need for gas home.
It worked great
