Question:
Hello I own a 2014 FJ cruiser and need to wire up a tow electric harness. But I need to keep the light separate so I wonder if it is possible to purchase just the loom sections or even just the individual connectors that parallel link into the OE harness so that I can wire up a 7pin connector without having to cut into the main wires. Thank you

So it sounds like you are possibly trying to wire in a second 7-way to your 2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser. Which if that is the case the part # 41157 would be what you would need.
Or if you are just trying to install a 7-way in general on a vehicle that does not have one you would first need to start with a 4-way. For that you would want the part # 118405 which is a confirmed fit that plugs in line with the taillight hosing of your vehicle.
Now if your trailer does not have brakes all you would need is the part # 37185 as an adapter to convert the 4-way to a 7-way.
If you do have trailer brakes you would need the # ETBC7 instead of the # 37185 and a brake controller. This kit comes with everything needed to wire up the 7-way and install a brake controller.
For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup.
