Expert Reply:

I checked with all of our wiring manufacturers and none of them have anything listed as of yet (September 2023). Since none of them have something listed for a custom-fit installation you'll need to use a universal wiring kit like the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter # C59236 for your 2023 Honda Pilot.

This wiring kit splices in behind your tail lights and then has a power lead that draws power from your battery so you don't have to worry about the trailer drawing too much power from your vehicle OEM wiring.

If you don't already have a hitch receiver then I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e27KR because of the matte black finish, which does a great job at blending in with any black trim you have on your vehicle. You can secure the 4-Way wiring connector to the hitch crosstube using brackets # 18144 and # 18140.
