Expert Reply:
It will require a little hardwiring but you can use extension # PK11-934. One end plugs into the back of a standard US car connector 7-Way. The other end has blunt cut wires that will need to be spliced into the existing harness you have.
Another option would be to cut the wiring harness somewhere and splice in additional wires using # DW04914-1 which is sold by the foot. I recommend 2 feet in case you need some slack so you would enter 2 in the quantity box. I recommend using heat shrink butt connectors # DW05745-10 to make the connections followed by mummifying the connections with electrical tape to make extra sure that they are protected from the elements.
You would need a total of 14 butt connectors so in addition to the 10-pack listed above you can also add the 5-pack # DW05745-5.
