Basically they are the same connector with just a slightly different part number. We carry the part # HM40975 and if you ordered the 40974 from someone else (not recommended haha) you'd get the same thing which just a different part number on the box.
I attached an install video for this kit for you to check out as well.

Hopkins part#40975 says not compatible with 17 Tacoma but #40974 is exact fit for Tacoma. My question is will the pigtail for Tekonsha harness #22117 work with either connector? Thanks for any info.
