Question:
That's too bad. I was really liking the plug and play approach. I already have wiring from front of the car to the back. I am currently using it with magnetic surface mount lights, so I don't need that wire. I guess I just really need the diodes if this is the option. Thanks for the response.

The TowDaddy Custom Tail Light Wiring Kit for Towed Vehicles # TD3018 is not a fit for your 2005 Honda Pilot. TowDaddy was acquired by Hopkins, but they no longer make these harnesses and I do not recommend them. Hopkins does make some custom wiring connection harnesses but unfortunately they do not make one for your Pilot.
For a better alternative I recommend the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267 or the Roadmaster Universal Hy-Power Diode Wiring Kit # RM-154. These options will utilize the diodes to protect your factory wiring as you splice into it to provide very reliable connections. They will provide you with connection to your factory wiring, but don't have the quick connects you were seeking.
