Easiest 4-Way Flat Wire Harness Kit for Installation On a 2005 Honda Element

Question

Question:

Has any type of plug and play kit been made for the towing wiring harness for 2005 Honda Element? This kit you recommend looks really overwhelming to me to install. I was able to easily install one on my 2008 Honda Element years ago, but unfortunately I recently wrecked that car. Now I have an older version 2005. Thanks

The ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # 119250KIT will be the easiest harness we have that you can install on your 2005 Honda Element. This kit uses sensors that clamp over the wires rather than having to splice into the wiring like the Kit # C59496. You will still have to run a power wire to the battery to power converter.

Typically 4-way wiring consists of 18 and 16 gauge wires. For a 4-way that has all 16 gauge wire you would want the Wesbar 4-Pole Flat Connector #W787264. The part #HM38138 uses 18 gauge for all wires but the white that uses 16 gauge.
