Hey Robert,
I'm not sure what wiring you're looking at that isn't available until February, but what I recommend pairing with your Draw-Tite Hitch # 76419 is the Tekonsha T-One # 118750. The best parts about this kit are that it's the most reliable, and it tees in behind your tail lights so you won't be running the risk of affecting the OEM wiring on your Equinox.
I also recommend picking the mounting brackets # 18144 and # 18136 along with a ball mount kit like the etrailer # e66PR because the brackets will allow you to keep the 4-Way near the hitch receiver, and then the etrailer ball mount has a wide range of adjustments to accommodate a LOT of different trailer heights.
Attached are some installation videos for you to check out.
