Question:

Hidden Hitch part number 20135. Is this part a direct plag and play for my 2003 Dodge Ram 1500? I do not have a factory 7 way wiring on my truck.

I am sorry, but I am not showing that part Multi-Plug T-One Connector, part # 20135, is a fit for your 2003 Dodge Ram 1500. You need the 7-Way and 4-Way Replacement Connector for Dodge Trucks, part # 42145, for your truck. It will plug directly into a receptacle under the bumper on your Dodge. All you have to do is mount the connector, and you are ready!
