To add a 7-Way trailer connector to the bed of your 1999 GMC truck you have some options. First, if the truck came with a factory 7-Way then you can just use # C56080 which will plug into the 7-Way at the rear of the truck.

If your truck does not have a 7-Way then you would first need to install one. To do this you can use # ETBC7. For this to install you would need to have a 4-Way flat trailer connector at the back of the truck. If you do not then you can install one, # 118315, and then install the ETBC7 which will then allow you to use # C56080. So it really all depends on what kind of trailer connector the truck has now. But no matter what it has we got you covered!
