Actually, the installation is a pretty simple that the average person could handle on their own, as long as the vehicle has a functional 7-way trailer connector.

If the vehicle doesn't have a trailer connector at all, you'll begin with a 4 pole connector, like what's provided by # C55504. Then, you'd upgrade that using part # ETBC7L.

If the vehicle already has a functional 4-pole, you'll just need the # ETBC7L.

The only installers I'll recommend are the folks here at our facility just west of St. Louis in Wentzville, MO but any trusted mechanic would be able to handle the install for you with ease.

That's a very good question, we tend to be extra cautious and say to use 10 gauge wire because that would be more than enough. When you get into longer trailers that will end up using a lot of wire the heavier gauge wire becomes more necessary.…
