Thank you for the photos!

It looks like you're trying to plug the Curt T-Connector # C56515 directly into the 7-Way blade connection on your 2003 GMC Envoy, when this wiring is actually designed for you to disconnect the current 7-Way connector from that US CAR connection. In the second photo you sent in (from behind the 7-Way) you can see where your OEM plug meets the back of the 7-Way connector - that's where you'll disconnect it.

Since I imagine you're wanting to have the 4-Way connector and the 7-Way connectors readily available I recommend using the Curt T-Connector # C55384 which tees in behind the 7-Way but it actually has an output US CAR on it as well so your OEM 7-Way can plug in.

For an all-in-one system we also have the Curt # C55774 which places both connectors neatly next to each other and can be secured to your trailer hitch with the No-Drill Bracket # C57202.

I've linked some installation videos you can reference for the installation.
