We don't have a 7-way to plug directly into the van but I do have an option for you.

If your 2016 Chevrolet Express 3500 van had a factory 7-way and it needs to be replaced you can wire in a new one with a harness like # PK11998 and then connect it to a 7-way connector like # A10-7072VP or # HM40975.

If there is currently no trailer connector at all you will first need to install a 4-way connector, # 31345. Once you have the 4-way you can use our # ETBC7 kit for a fully functioning 7-way. The ETBC7 includes the 7-way and all the wiring for an electric brake controller. If you already have a 4-way all you'll need is the # ETBC7.

If your trailer doesn't have brakes and you don't need the 7-way to be fully functioning you can go from a 4-way to a 7-way using # 37185 and just not connect the wires that won't be used.

If your trailer does have brakes and you need a brake controller I suggest the Prodigy P2 # 90885.
