Question:

Hi I have an ivisibrake installed in my Subaru and I would like to be able to use auxiliary lights because of my bike rack. Could I use a CURT 57015 Dual Output and be able to plug in both the tow bar and the auxiliary lights?

You will want to use the Multi-Tow 7-Way and 4-Way # 30955 to add a 4-way you can access while also using the 7-way blade connector. The Curt 57015 # C42JR does not allow for both the 7-way and 4-way doors to be opened at the same time. The Multi-Tow above will plug in the same USCAR connector the Curt would connect into. This will give you a separate 4-way which you can use for your Auxiliary Lights # C53201.

If the 7-way on your tow vehicle is hard wired and does not use the USCAR connector you will want to use the Hopkins Endurance # HM48470 to wire in a 7-way and 4-way connector you will be able to use at the same time.
