For trailer wiring the brand we have the best luck with is Tekonsha. They are the most reliable and overall give us the fewest problems. The majority of the time we have an issue with a wiring harness it's a Curt brand. And they've redesigned a few times with the same result. So for your 2015 Honda CR-V you'd want the # 118561 which is a confirmed fit and will work well.
I attached an install video for you to check out as well.

Viewed more videos and got the answer I was looking for... Yes, fuse is able to be mounted from behind interior panels.

I observed viewing install video for #118561 that tech mounted converter box in spare wheel compartment. My question is... does wiring harness have enough reach that fuse also can be located out from behind interior side panels?
