Hi Nhia,

The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98844 is not going to come with trailer wiring so you will need to purchase it separately. For your 2017 Highlander SE I recommend the Curt # 56042 if you have the factory tow package; for non-tow package models you'll need the Tekonsha # 118449 instead. If you plan on towing a trailer with electric brakes then you'll need to go with the Tekonsha # 22119 instead for a 7-way and would also need a brake controller.

@NhiaC Definitely, the Hopkins Plug-In Simple Vehicle Wiring Harness # HM11141845 you ordered will also work, I just prefer Curt and Tekonsha products more than Hopkins. Tekonsha is going to be the most reliable with Hopkins and Curt coming in second so I typically recommend Tekonsha whenever there is a fit available. The installation of your Hopkins will be super easy though and you can watch the attached video below for some guidance.
