Question:

The 2019 Subaru Outback Wagon has about a 7/8 inch hole for the vehicle side trailer socket. The trap door opening is only about 2 1/2 x 2 1/2 inches. Doesnt seem like either the 6 round or the 7 blade will fit. Any ideas?

Expert Reply:

If you're trying to attach the Pollak 6-Pole, Round Pin, Trailer Wiring Socket # PK11609 to the back of the Subaru for towing a trailer and there isn't a big enough cutout in the paneling to accommodate the socket then you'll need to get some brackets to mount it to the hitch. You can use a no-drill bracket # 18136 to connect to the hitch and then 6-pole bracket # PK11771 off of it for the # PK11609 to mount to.
