Question:

hi ordered this for the subaru Curt Manufacturing 55370 Trailer Connector i was then going to get the four prong to seven prong converter. Now what i was wondering if instead of wiring in a break controller can i just use a bluetooth breakcontroller, and still achive the desired effect without having to do the wiring.

You can easily use a wireless brake controller like the Curt Echo part # C51180 in your 2005 Subaru Outback Wagon that you are installing the Curt 4-way part # C55370 in.

The only other thing you need is a 4-way to 7-way adapter part # ETBC7L. This adapter was actually put together by us for people like you who want to adapt the 4-way to a 7-way to install the Curt Echo. You'll plug in the 4-way and then run one wire to the battery and you'd be set.
