Question:
I have a 2009 Subaru outback. The location of the trailer wiring port was further back than in the installation video, and the plug only had 4 flat connectors. It didnt seem to fit with the connector on this part. Am I doing something wrong, or did I get the wrong part?

Hey Tom, did the T-One wiring harness end up fitting your 2009 Outback once you found the plug on the driver side? Knowing how it worked out could help others sorting through the same wiring difference.
